The listing, 1 Bulb POUI aka TABEBUIA SERRATIFOLIA has ended.

The Poui is one of the largest and strongest of tropical forest trees, growing up to 150 feet tall while the base can be 4 to 7 feet in diameter. All the leaves are shed early in the dry season, usually in January and February and new leaves do not appear for three to four months. Flowering takes place in April and june with the flowers being in clusters and each flower is yellow and trumpet shaped. The ligulate pod is 18" long and 1" wide and contains a lot of small feathery seeds. The inside of the pod is eaten by toucans. These seeds are wind-blown and germinate easily in moist soil, so that over time many poui trees will grow in one area.They are very easy to glow .. I have harvest these seeds from my own tree four day ago...You should avoid exposure to late freezings; grow it in a covered place, locating it outside only in late spring. During the winter young plants could need a light protection from the wind or cold; and they should be provided with a high stake to keep them erect. .Fun biding
