Description: Caesalpinia Pulcherrima: Also known as peacock flower, Barbados pride, dwarf poinciana. A tropical looking shrub, or small tree that is not only beautiful but super easy to grow from seed. The stem, branches and petioles are armed with sharp spines and the leaves are fernlike and twice compound, with many small, oval leaflets. Peacock flower lives up to its name with incredibly showy blossoms of orange and red. The flowers are bowl shaped, 2-3" across, with five crinkled, unequal red and orange petals, and ten prominent bright red stamens that extend way beyond the corolla. The flowers are borne in terminal clusters 8-10" tall throughout most of the year in tropical climates and in late summer and fall where frosts occur. The fruits, typical legumes, are flat, 3-4" long, and when ripe they split open noisily to expose the little brown beans. Will die down to the ground in cold weather. Butterfly and hummingbird attractor. Can be grown in large tubs or pots and overwintered in a garage or greenhouse and is drought tolerant ---------------- 5 SEEDS----------------Perennial Sun/part shade Height: 8-12' Zones: 7-11 *** All orders are shipped within 24-36 hours after receipt of payment and come with sowing instructions in bubble wrap to protect your seeds. *** Orders not received must be notified within 14 days of shipping.Only orders $15 or more will include tracking. -------------------------------PAYMENT------------------------------Shipping is .25 cents for each additional item for any amount of seeds bought within a (7) SEVEN DAY period providing you pay with ONE payment.
