Delonix regia (Royal Poinciana)

Description

Delonix regia is one of the most spectacular flowering trees, admired for its broad, umbrella-shaped canopy and brilliant scarlet red flowers. In standard form, it is trained to develop a clear trunk and a balanced crown, creating an elegant and striking landscape feature.

This tree thrives in full sun and performs best in well drained soil. It is highly tolerant of heat and drought once established, making it well suited to warm climates and large open spaces.
