A tree which is common in gardens around Brisbane is the orchid tree - which during spring and other times of the year blooms with this exotic looking flower. It is not a true orchid of course - and it's name is really bauhinia.
There are differing colours - some trees are pink, and this one has more of a purple flower. They produce flowers prolifically and when the flowers die off there is a carpet of spent petals on the ground below the tree.
