I'd like to have a few of these in my garden. :>)

Delonix,

My mother in law use to spread this using small sticks with some roots. I have no idea if it can be reproduced using seeds (it probably does) also, I have no idea how to extract the seeds from the flowers.
Right now it has hundred flowers, and in a few weeks it will start dry and fall.
I could try take some seeds if you give me instructions.
:o)

Aleyna:

Most people grow orchids (here) from off-shoots. Of course, the hybrids have to be started from seeds.

I'm not very familiar with seed germination. My Epidendrum orchids set seed pods. I may have to experiment.
