Description

Location Being a tropical plant, the Flamboyant enjoys warm climates.
It is able to adapt to different climatic zones, as long as temperatures remain between 10º and 35ºC.
It is ideal for gardens where it can receive direct sunlight, as sun is crucial for its exuberant growth and flowering. Watering Adequate watering is essential to maintain a healthy Flamboyant with abundant blooms: -Winter: Water your Flamboyant once a week. During this time, the tree needs less water due to lower temperatures and less evaporation. -Summer: In the hottest months, watering should be frequent, about every other day.
The heat and high evaporation cause the tree to require more water to stay hydrated. Substrate To ensure healthy and vigorous growth of your Flamboyant, it is important to use a suitable substrate:-Ideal Composition: mix black peat with perlite and worm castings humus.
This combination provides excellent moisture retention, good drainage and rich nutrition, which favors the development of strong roots and a lush canopy. Transplanting Although Flamboyan can be grown in pots, to reach its full size and develop a full canopy structure, it is recommended to transplant it to the ground. –Ideal Transplanting Time: Early spring, when the weather begins to warm up and the tree is coming out of its winter dormancy.
This is the perfect time for the roots to adapt to the new space and for the tree to take advantage of the entire growing season.
Benefits of Having a Flamboyant -Aesthetics: Its vibrant red flowers are not only a visual delight, but also attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, enriching the biodiversity of your garden. –Natural Shade: Its wide canopy provides shade, making it a perfect choice for creating cool and pleasant areas in the garden. -Adaptability: Although it is a tropical tree, the Flamboyant is quite adaptable and can thrive in a variety of climatic conditions, as long as its temperature and sunlight requirements are respected.
Flamboyant is a tropical gem that can transform any green space into a refreshing, visual paradise.
With proper care, including frequent summer watering, a nutritious substrate and timely transplanting to the ground, your Flamboyant will flourish in all its splendor, providing you with years of beauty and shade.
