Rainbow Eucalyptus - Colourful Trees in Hawaii
• 10 comments •
Aren't these incredible? I saw pictures of colorful eucalyptus trees online before we visited Hawaii, but they all looked phoney. These are real! Everyone seems to boost the saturation, but, I can assure you: trees that look like rainbow sherbet actually exist.
From the minimal research I did, I discovered that the tree's bark sheds to reveal a bright green layer that matures to different hues and shades. They're also called Eucalyptus deglupta, Mindanao Gum and the Rainbow Gum. Around the 7 mile marker, on the Road to Hana, they’re in a pasture on the ocean-side of the road.
I snapped a most of these photos on the side of the road, and the last few at the Pineapple Maze in Oahu. - Mina

ReplyDeleteIf you didn't write that part about the saturation, I think I wouldn't have believed you. Crazy trees!
