Caesalpinia ferrea, a slender tree, boasts a uniquely colorful trunk, making it a perfect fit for small gardens.
Its dainty canopy allows ample light to filter through, making it an excellent choice for planting on lawns.
However, be mindful of its aggressive root system, which mirrors the size of the tree above ground. In spring, small yellow, bell-shaped flowers grace its branches, followed by the emergence of dark seed pods. This tree is sensitive to wind conditions.
