This is a coral tree that I grew from a seed I found in Maui many years ago. I never dreamed it would get this big when I planted it outside what is now my sewing room. I is bare in January, starts budding leaves in March and starts blooming in May. Look at it now!!! I love it.

It is beautiful!! My parents used to have a coral tree planted in the middle of their back patio. It was a gorgeous tree but the roots started pulling up all the cement and tore up the planter so they had to have it taken out!

It is really gorgeous! God does good work, huh? I guess you've received enough rain to not hamper its growth. It is soooooo dry here in Texas everything is looking brown & so whimpy. Can't wait until Fall... altho my backyard looks that way with so many dead leaves falling...

Such a beautiful tree. Love the way it hangs and the brilliant colors. Thanks for sharing.

So happy you share my love for this pretty tree. I can't remember the year I planted it, but it must have been near twenty (or more) years ago now. It took several years before it started to bloom, but has done a show-off job since then. Best part is, it blooms off and on for about seven months.
We did get some extra rain here this year (thank God) but we have an automatic sprinkling system to keep our yard green. I am so blessed to have all this. Thanks for looking and commenting. :)
