Flowers are visited by Allen's Hummingbird, Megachile ianthoptera, Broad-billed Hummingbird, and Phoebis sennae marcellina. Delonix regia, commonly called flamboyant or royal poinciana, is a tropical tree that is native to Madagascar but has been widely planted around the world in tropical and semi-tropical areas. It typically grows to 30-40' tall with a broad-spreading, flat-topped, umbrella-like crown. Crowns of mature trees often spread to 60-70' wide. This tree is noted for featuring a superb ornamental display of showy scarlet flowers and compound mimosa-like leaves. In the U. S., it can be grown outdoors in the far southern areas of Florida, Texas, Arizona and California plus Hawaii. This tree is deciduous in climates that have a dry season or mildly cool winter, but otherwise is evergreen. Lacy, feathery, mimosa-like, bipinnately compound leaves to 8-15" long, each having 10-20 pairs of pinnae with further division into 25-35 pairs of smaller pinnules. Flowers (3-4") are a brilliant scarlet orange. Each flower has four spreading petals and a larger fifth petal (the banner) which has streaks of yellow and white. In the continental U. S., flowering typically occurs from late spring into summer. Flowers give way to flattened bean-like fruit pods (each to 24" long).Where winter hardy, flamboyant is an outstanding flowering tree for gardens, parks, along streets, and for large front yards. Mature trees provide excellent shade.Winter hardy to USDA Zones 10-12 where it is easily grown in medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Best with consistent moisture except during the dry/dormant season when watering should be reduced. Plants dislike temperatures that dip below 50 degrees F do bring them indoors before the temperatures start to drop. Flame Trees also make for some of the Most Stunning Bonsai specimens as well. Common Name: royal poinciana Type: Tree Family: Fabaceae Native Range: Madagascar Zone: 10 to 12 Height: 30.00 to 40.00 feet Spread: 40.00 to 70.00 feet Bloom Time: June to July Bloom Description: Scarlet-orange Sun: Full sun Water: Medium Maintenance: Low Suggested Use: Shade Tree, Street Tree, Flowering Tree Flower: Showy Leaf: Evergreen Fruit: Showy Other: Winter Interest Flame Tree Germination: 1)Scarify the seeds by chipping the seed coats to stimulate germination by allowing water to penetrate the seeds. Use a small knife to nick the seed shells, but not too deep. 2)Place the seeds in water and bring it to a boil. Then allow the water to cool while the seeds soak for 24 hours. 3)Use a well mixed & well draining potting soil with a bit of sand added to help with drainage. Plant the seeds 1/2 inches deep. 4)Use a heated propagator mat to keep the soil at a constant 78 degrees F. 5)Keep the soil moist, not wet as that can cause them to rot. 6)As with any tropical or exotic seed, germination is erratic and never occurs at the same time. One or two seeds may sprout within 2-3 weeks, but most will germinate anywhere between 12-349 days, but by following the germination instructions, you will Greatly Speed up Germination. Don't toss out the ones that haven't as they are still good & will still germinate at a later time. 7)Periodically check them for signs of mold or fungus. If found, remove effected seeds and clean with a copper based fungicide. Then, rinse them well and place them back into a new & sterile potting mix.
