💃 One of the top 10 most impressive trees on the planet

✍️ "To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow." - Audrey Hepburn


📷 Royal poinciana, Flamboyant tree, Delonix regia - one of the most popular tropical trees covered with bright red orchid-like flowers from late winter through early summer.

"The Royal Poinciana is one of the most spectacular flowering trees in the USA, and probably among the top 10 on this planet. In full bloom, it is like a regal elephant caparisoned in red and yellow brilliance."
(Larry M. Schokman, The Kampong, National Tropical Botanic Garden)

🍓 Why is it called Pineapple Guava? It tastes just like strawberries! Feijoa Superfood.
  • Feijoa is certainly one of the easiest fruit trees to grow as it does not require much care.
  • Feijoa is an attractive, evergreen large shrub that produces lovely edible flowers and fruit.
  • The fruit is eaten fresh, added to smoothies, fruit salads, used to make delicious jam (that tastes like Strawberry Jam on steroids!), and wicked chutneys.


Feijoa fruit go a long way in flavor!
