Default Adelaide city of trees

Here are some of the photos from my visit to Adelaide last week.

River Torrens 3mins from main Mall


Heading towards the Botanical gardens moderate sized Ficus macrophylla


Further up the same road check out the canopy coverage (that will be after bud break) over the road junction!


Plane tree drive very special....


Now this road was surfaced 97' very little impact on the bitumen or the small kerb....though I do think the trees have been very slightly buried.


Compare with the basal flare on these beauties in the gardens proper....


More to come.....
