Grow one of the world’s most spectacular flowering trees with Royal Poinciana (Delonix regia) seeds. Known as the Flame Tree or Flamboyant Tree, this tropical favorite produces breathtaking clusters of vivid red-orange flowers that cover the canopy for weeks in spring and summer.

Royal Poinciana is extremely fast growing, often reaching up to 5 feet per year in warm climates. It develops a wide, umbrella-shaped canopy that provides excellent shade, making it a stunning specimen tree for tropical landscapes. Its fern-like, finely divided foliage adds soft texture and elegance even when the tree is not in bloom.

Highly tolerant of heat, drought, and salty conditions (away from direct beach exposure), this tree is perfect for tropical gardens, coastal areas, and large sunny spaces. It can also be pruned and maintained at a smaller size or grown in greenhouse conditions in cooler regions.

You will receive:
✔️ 5 Royal Poinciana seeds
✔️ Clearly labeled seed packet
✔️ Sowing instructions included
✔️ Non-pretreated seeds
✔️ Secure packaging for safe delivery
