This tree is very widely grown here and grows to become a very tall and extremely wide tree. It has a similar proportions as Delonix regia. Be careful where you plant it. :>)

You may be surprised! I know here they can grow at least 6 feet/ 2 meters a year in all directions.

Delonix: Hmm. the ones at the hospital where I used to work had a sweet melon fragrance in the morning. Disappeared by 10:00 am, though.
