The Queensland Bottle Tree, scientifically known as Brachychiton rupestris, is a truly remarkable and iconic tree native to Australia, particularly Queensland. What sets it apart is its distinctive, swollen, bottle-shaped trunk, which can attain impressive proportions and is characterized by smooth, pale grayish-white bark. The leaves, while large and leathery, create a striking contrast with the massive trunk. The Queensland Bottle Tree symbolizes resilience and holds cultural significance, making it a beloved and iconic emblem of the Australian Outback. However, this Bottle Tree is imported from Japan.
