Delonix decaryi

This is one of the few species of Delonix that grows as a "bottle-tree" , like a baobab. It is native to the dry South of Madagascar, where it grows together with other succulent plants and caudiciforms. It typically grows to 3 or 4 m tall, but taller specimens are occasionally found. Adult "bottle-trees" are very beautiful when they get covered of plenty of flowers in the flowering season. Flowers are white when they open, turning to yellow and strong apricot after some time. The red stamens are very showy.
