This small, semi-deciduous tree grows 6-10m in height. A short trunk gives rise to vigorous spreading branches which hold large 2-lobed mid-green leaves. The tree is covered in beautiful purplish pink orchid like flowers during the warmer months. Long flattened seed pods follow and they can hang on the tree for several months.

This wonderful Bauhinia is considered a sterile form. It forms a tall densely foliaged tree to 10m. The flowers are large, to 15cm, dark pink to red with purplish streaks and slightly fragrant. A truly spectacular tree when in full bloom autumn through to winter.

Lovely tropical tree from central America growing to 10m in height. New foliage emerges light pink but soon hardens to deep glossy green. Spectacular scarlet red orange flowers emerge on the tips as well as the trunk in spring and summer with clusters up to 20cm wide.
