Do you get a lot of fruit? I know it can produce lots of fruit.

No Delonix...not seen any fruit, but Im happy with the blooms

Have you ever eaten the flowers in the past? They're good in salads.

Really!!!! I will give it a try........lol

Yes, you'll have to try it. :>)

Yesterday I went to Vieja's Casino and Outlets in Alpine, they had many dozens of Feijaos planted everywhere. Alpine is in the foothills at around 2,200ft (671m) elevation, it gets pretty cold up there in winter and even snows in some years.

Milky how long dod you have to wait for this to flower? ours is about 6 ft and 2 years old now...

Dotty...Mine is about 5 feet but I have been cutting it back after flowering for last 2 years.....its 5 years old.....it faces north and is in a windy spot...lol

OK perhaps next year.
