Inga edulis - Ice Cream Bean

Andy,
Somehow I think I should take the picture of the trees with the cars under them...
It would show the magneficence of the trees, but... I have to take pictures of bougainvilleas and delonix this weekend :):))))))

Aleyna:

I look forward to seeing your new photos. : > )

This tree is around 55 feet/ 17 meters tall

Wow even bigger than the first.

Yes, it grows extremely fast to a very large size. This is why I never put mine into the grow. It really hates being in a pot, though.

That's a shame you have by the room in the ground for it Andy does it produce fruit growing in the pot.

It very rarely produces fruit in a pot. It did one year because the roots got into the ground.

Perhaps a much bigger pot then.

It's in a really huge pot, already. I should probably cut the roots back one year. lol!

That would be a good idea cutting the roots might be better then especially if it's in a big pot.

Yes, it's in the biggest pot I want to have. lol! I will have to cut back the tree and roots.

I do love the flowers on this tree. I see a large tree in full flower on the way to work. I'll have to try to get a photo.

I think that would be best Andy. Yes please do I would love to see it.

They powder puff white flowers.

Here's photos from the internet.

Are nt the flowers stunning thank you Andy for taking the time to find a link to show me I can see why you have one.

It's a pretty tree, just too big. :>))

Yes which is a shame.

It can be kept a little smaller; however, one would have to prune it constantly.

Yes a lot of work though.

Yes, it's a lot of work. In a pot it grows slowly.

I bet it is a lot of work . Like most tree s then that are in pots slow growing .

Yes, because of their limited root-systems.

I can imagine even harder then
