"Thank you very much. My cordylines arrived today :) I am very impressed with your prompt service and the quality of my new babies.

I will definitely order plants from you in the future.

Thanks again, Courtney"

Metrosideros bartlettii
This native bee, with its mates, were by far the winners with the flowers on this tree, just the right shape to get every drop they wanted. Quick moving tho' - quite the challenge to photograph one staying still long enough on top of the flower (as opposed to only seeing its rear-end due to the front end being buried deep down the stamens).

Thanks to dayne laird for sharing this photo!
