Spring flowers

I found these spring flowers at the Botanic Gardens the other day. I am guessing that they are a metrosideros of some kind, and need @julzmaioro to identify it for me!
Stunning shot. Fav

A rata and not a pohutukawa? So @julzmaioro says and she must know. There is the southern rata too!

@maggiemae This is the Northern Rata @maggiemae I am not sure what the different is ...
