💛💜♥️ Three top tropical trees - from the legends of Caribbean. Yellow Poinciana, Jacaranda, and Royal Poinciana: three happy colors of the Tropics.

While traveling through the vibrant and diverse Caribbean, we acquired three exquisite local paintings rendered on jacaranda wood plates and a calabash. These pieces of art celebrate the three most spectacular and revered flowering trees of the Tropics:
  1. Yellow Poinciana, with its bright golden blossoms, associated with joy and sunlight, symbolizing the warmth of the Caribbean spirit💛
  2. Jacaranda, known for its striking lavender-blue flowers, is a symbol of wisdom and rebirth, blooming in a breathtaking display that signals the change of seasons 💜
  3. Royal Poinciana, that we mentioned earlier, with its fiery red and orange flowers, is a symbol of passion and energy, referred to as the "Flamboyant" tree due to its bold and dramatic appearance ♥️


  4. Get them now while we have them. No need to go too far into Caribbean!

💩 💃 Why did she say it's a dog poo? It's a beauty from Argentina!
  • 🌸 This remarkable caudiciform Morning Glory - Ipomoea platensis - is native to arid regions of Argentina.
  • 🌸 This is a showy flowering vine growing from a large caudex! The caudex can be of some weird shapes and forms. Some old lady once said "it's a dog poo plant!"
  • 🌸 Similar to Desert roses (Adeniums), it grows caudex for water storage to survive extended drought periods.
  • 🌸 Caudex grows over 2 ft! Vines reach over 12 ft, covered with beautiful bell-shaped pink flowers.
  • 🌸 Can be kept as a bonsai in a pot, easy to control as a container specimen with trellis or pruning.
  • 🌸 Although it doesn't mind dry conditions, the plant benefits from regular watering and good drainage, then it grows fast.
  • 🌸 This is one of our favorite plants, easy to grow, makes a great conversation piece. It is a perfect for bonsai
