Bottle Trees

The Supreme Feature Tree

(Brachychiton rupestris)

The Bottle Tree stands out as one of the most unique trees of the Australian natives.  Like humans, Bottle Trees demonstrate a high degree of individuality, each tree being different in shape and character to the next. Children love the friendly characteristic aspects of the Bottle Tree and it is not so much the height of the trees, but the girth and form of these trees that makes them very impressive to the young and old alike.

These trees have different heights and all the shapes differ with each tree - the trunk width can be slender and tall or fat and squat or with a tall fat bottle girth

From the remarkable striking bottle shape the trunks taper upwards to a narrow neck from which the branch network grows upwards and outwards.  Bottle Trees mostly grow as a single stem though some divide into two or three close to the ground and later may meld into one making an impressive trunk.

Bottle Trees will fit into virtually any landscape design and will make an impressive presence

Here are recently transplanted Bottle Trees in Adelaide South Australia,
relocated from South East Queensland over 2,000km's away

Bottle Trees make an impressive entrance to a new housing development
and feature trees in a motor vehicle dealership
