Thanks Fred. I don’t know the name of them.

A lovely little cluster. I don’t know what they are but guess they might be a kind of berry, as the flowers look a lot like blackberry blooms. The leaves, however, are very different from blackberry leaves. :)
Much appreciated Celeste. Yes they do look like blackberry flowers yet they are smaller. The are growing on a tree that is about 8 foot tall. The leaves are rough but furry.

I was told these flowers are Leptospermum – part of the tree tree family. You are correct they do get berries. This occurs in December for us. My research tells me that it is an Australian Native.
Thanks always.

Hi Joy
The flowers are Leptospermum – but don’t know which Leptospermum. Part of the tea tree family – I think. NIce pic – everytime I try to take one they seem to be swaying in the breeze!
Thanks so much Jennifer for the name. I know what you mean about the breeze. It’s always windy where I live but even more so lately.
