Flower Friday ...Paulownia

Pendants of purple
Decorate tall bare trees
Holding the hillside


I think I have said before that the Dellside Reserve which is on the hill above my street contains a variety of beautiful trees both native and exotic.  Part of the reason for the planting is to stop erosion and contain the heavy down pours of rain that sweep through from time to time.  This morning I walked up the first part of the track under the exotic purple Paulownia trees.  I put an extra in to give some context.
