The iconic Kiwi Christmas tree is the Pohutukawa tree that blooms near Christmas and has beautiful red blooms. I stopped with the kiddos near the traffic circle at State Highway 3 and Glover Road, here in Hawera and snapped a few shots.

Our friends told us about the trees before they started blooming and I expected them to turn bright red all over, but none in town have bloomed more than this one. Still, it's a pretty tree.
