That is a magnificent tree! Is it that color all year, or just for a short time?

That is a great specimen! I still remember the first time I saw a Tabebuia tree...It was just incredible and I had to get close to it and verify that it was real. Thanks for sharing it with us!

This tree is in Orlando and is one of scores which bloom in late mid to late March around the downtown neighborhoods. The rest of the year it is a somewhat unremarkable tree, but really shows it's splendor when it blooms. Later, as the flowers fall, a bright yellow carpet surrounds the tree.

Hello,
I live near Orlando in Clermont, Fl. I was thinking about planting such a tree in my yard and I was wondering, how well this kind of tree does in the hurricane winds?

BTW, beautiful tree.

Thanks.

There are two such trees about 6 blocks north of my house: one over the power lines and the baby one is 15 feet tall. So, today, I got some seeds . . . we'll see.

Next, I'm going for the purple jacaranda (I see some here, but all over the place in St Pete), then some royal poincianas.

They'll blend in with my weather station:

Hi! I have a question. How old was this tree when it started its blooming? I am not sure if it's normal to wait about 10 years or my tree is needing help.
