first tree on post #3.
The last thumbnail on post #2 is a Calliandra spinosa, which is a common species in the North East of Brazil. It is related to the "pink powderpuff" tree, however, its flowers are white! The first one on post #3 is, just as they said, a Callistemon!It’s a very nice collection. I like the last thumbnail on post #2 and the first tree on post #3. What are they please?
This is a "Nectarina" tree, as we call it here! This is actually a peach variation : Prunus persica var. nucipersica.Thanks for posting, I find shows from parts of the world I have not, or can't travel to, very interesting. Thank you
What species is this?
This is called "Caqueira", which is used as substrate. It basically consists of roof tile shards which where broken, sift and washed. This component is helps draining the soil a lot. I will send a pic here, tooWhat is the very red substrate? @Heitor Silva
Nice to know! Very vibrant color. Is it just a top dressing or do they use it in the soil mix?This is called "Caqueira", which is used as substrate.

Nice, thanks. The callistemon would make a nice image of a weeping willow, but I doubt they’d be hardy enough for the UK. I’ll do some research. The calliandra looks like a legume of some description. Nice small compound leaves. Always like to see native plants of different countries.The last thumbnail on post #2 is a Calliandra spinosa, which is a common species in the North East of Brazil.

Nice one dude. Sounds like it could be a goer then. Any excuse for a new ‘project’.You should be good to go, hardy to -5c and are available in the UK, should not be hard to find some nursery stock somewhere and if you are lucky there may be gardendori around.
