I have one in a pot about 2 feet tall. Should I plant it in the ground now or let it get a little taller and plant it next spring?

Howdy Darciwill-

I'd go ahead and put it in the ground. Down there in Odem, you can probably leave that plant out year round and not worry about it. Should do really well.

Good luck!

I have enjoyed this plant for quite a number of years, and I always have one coming up each spring from the ground (perhaps from seed). I live in the Texas Panhandle where there is a lot of wind besides hard freezes in the winter. The plant always seems to set alot of seeds when it does flower and the seeds are easy to germinate.

Thank you TexasTam. I also have some jacarandas, blue and yellow. If it is okay to plant the pride of barbados, then I am going to put all of them out. If they make it, I should have a really colorful yard.
Thanks again. I do so appreiate information from the experts.
