I have a small grafted yellow Royal Poinciana. Its only about 3 feet tall. Here's a couple of photos of the yellow form and there is even an orange-ish colored variety.

Bubba, this look similar to a plant I have, that is sold as Paraguay Nightshade (Lycianthes rantonnei.) Freezes to the ground here in winter, but comes back larger every year.

The photos are from google.

The more I look at that photo, the more I am convinced that I may be wrong on my ID.

Eric in Orlando, where are you? This one seems right up your alley.

The Acalypha is Acalypha hispaniolae.

Post #2 Keith was close, same family. The plant is a Brazilian Potato Tree (Solanum wrightii)

Post #5 Pic 1 is Pachystachys lutea with Angle Wing (maybe dragon wing) Begonia behind it (Great plant by the way).

Post #13 looks like Purple Allamanda

All of our Shower Trees are blooming. I'll try to come up with some photos.

I have the yellow poinciana (sp) and I don't believe it produces from seed.

Our orange poincianas are looking fine, thanks to a mini-drought that (we all hope) will end tomorrow.

Steve,Please post any Showers if possible and it would be great to see one of those Yellows or even a simple Royal.Thank you in advance

Dave,You got any Cassia fistula's up there in Weirdo?Why does everybody down here call it that?Jealous.

I have some seedlings from a pod from a yellow Poinciana, but they are small & I have no idea what the flowers will be. My yellow is grafted. I have seen yellow Poinciana seeds on ebay.

First the Rainbow Shower the Official tree on Honolulu

Second Queen's Hospital White. It starts out yellow and then turns white.

I believe all Showers are grafted to be sure you get what you want.

I'm growing a yellow graft here in southern CA that I got from some guy in PR. Its only about 3 feet tall and its still in a pot.

You might get lucky and get a yellow flowering royal poinciana from seed, but its such a looong wait and your chances are so small that I would try to get a graft. I don't know how fast you could get one from PR to Australia, but a small grafted tree should be able to survive the flight. Now would it survive the agricultual inspection? I don't know?

I believe I got my yellow graft from an ebay seller named "billy143pr". You could ask him if he has any more. The plant arrived quickly and the graft was well done.
