It's frost we have to contend with Delonix. It can cause awful damage, just as the blooms are emerging.

We don't have frost...it's just the 90 - 100ºF (32 - 38ºC) temps with very low humidity in fall that cause the flowers and foliage to burn. Most Camellia trees/shrubs are planted on the north-side of houses or buildings.

It is said here that it's best to plant them so they don't get the morning sun.

Here the north-east side of the house or building is best. It's the coolest exposure in fall (most of the time).

It's a beautiful color flower. I see them still flowering here. They start flowering here in November. They do burn a lot in November because of the extremely dry heat here.
