Cat of the month: Persephone - the Queen of the Underworld

🐱 Cat of the month: Persephone - the Queen of the Underworld

  • 🔠ell, well, well... it seems we have a new purrsonality around here! A few days ago, we discovered a mysterious little purrrson living under the TopTropicals office.

  • 🔠id a customer leave her behind? Or was she simply drawn to our PeopleCats paradise? Who can say!

  • 🔠ither way, since she made her grand entrance from the underground, we decided to name her Persephone, after the Greek goddess and queen of the Underworld.

  • 🔠ersephone has come a long way - she finally let us pet her, and now she's taken over the office desk!

  • 🔠he even drools a little when she gets those precious head scratches. Persephone has officially joined our Nursery Team, adding her charm to Customer Service

  • 🔠ome and see our #PeopleCats (including the queen herself!) in purrrrson at our Garden Center in Ft Myers, Florida!

Why some cassias are called "Rainbow"? A Top Tropicals Garden Blog post.

Why some cassias are called Rainbow?

Rainbow cassia - Cassia Marginata

🌈 Why some cassias are called "Rainbow"?

Cassias, besides yellow, can be pink, red, or with a multi-color flower combination.

Rainbow cassias are hybrids between yellow and pink or red cassias.

Some of the most showy cassias are:
Cassia grandis - Red Cassia
Cassia javanica - Apple Blossom Tree
Cassia marginata - Rainbow Shower Tree
Cassia roxburghii - Ceylon Senna
Cassia x nodosa - Pink Shower, Appleblossom.

♦️ Cassia trees are compact, fast growing, tolerant to drought and poor soils, free-flowering and relatively cold hardy. Always a great choice!
