These are lovely plants. Mine hasn't got as many leaves as yours. They look nicer with lots of leaves like this one :)

Hywel will it ever flower, it has trebled in size, I must admit I know nothing about these plants, just liked the look of it, bought it from a well known German supermarket!

I bought it in the same place :) I think it grows quite tall eventually, but don't know if it will flower in 'captivity'.
Apparently it is native to Madagascar.

It looks great! It will eventually flower if it get lots of sun and heat.
They're pretty commonly grown in the landscape here. It usually has to grow to 3' (1m) before they start to flower. However, the larger ones 8' (2.4m) or taller with branches bloom the best. I have several posted on GoY flowering.
The tallest Pachypodium (30' or 10m) I've ever seen was growing in Palm Springs, CA. the low desert where the heat is extremely unbearable, they're everywhere in the landscape.

Delonix it will never be able to go outside, not warm enough unfortunately....so I doubt it will ever have any flowers...
It is Feverfew, growing at a pace!!

It's not warm enough even in the summer?

Oh yes it could enjoy a few months outside, before it is bought back in to the conservatory....

Pachypodium loves the sun and heat! The ones here are growing like crazy still. The temps have been between 82 - 88ºF (28 - 31ºC) tomorrow is forested to be in the mid 90's (35ºC) here.

Wow......we had our first frost this morning, the lawn was white over, caught us on the hop!!

I can't imagine frost this time of year (not that I get frost here where I live). However, with it being so hot I can't imagine cold weather when I'm sweating here! lol! :>)
