Eclipsemas Tree
 
The Eclipsemas Tree (Pinus Festivicus var. Breathmintus) was thought to be extinct however a single specimen has recently been discovered in the Brisbane Botanic Gardens at Mount Coot-tha.
 
The Tree is an evergreen, growing to approximately 1.2 metres high (4 feet). It exhibits a remarkable ability to remain lush and green all year round despite requiring no water. It's easily identifiable by its numerous, brightly coloured, rectangular adornments and large star shaped feature at its crown.
 
The adornments of this particular specimen are heavily guarded against potential attackers by trained soldiers who are happy to be replaced by alternate defenders and taken away to explore the world.
 
Please take care of this fragile and rare example of the species and only try to locate it from the Botanic Gardens which are open from 8am to 5.30pm seven days a week (the gardens close at 5pm from April to August).
 
While visiting the Eclipsemas Tree, please take the time to explore and enjoy the rest of these beautiful gardens.
 
The Brisbane Botanic Gardens Mount Coot-tha is Queensland's premier subtropical botanic gardens. The 52 hectare gardens are located seven kilometres from the city centre on Mt Coot-tha Road, Toowong. Entry to the gardens is free. Botanic Gardens Mt Coot-tha features Japanese Gardens and a Freedom Wall monument. The botanic gardens are also home to the Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium.
