Coral Tree (Erythrina x bidwillii)

Grown as a small tree or multi-stemmed shrub, Coral Tree has gorgeous, long sprays of brilliant red flowers. It blooms freely from spring through summer after a winter resting period when the leaves can drop. A cross between E. herbacea and E. crista-galli, it can be grown in a pot and maintained at 3-4’ tall. Coral Tree makes a wonderful patio or summer garden plant and can take temperatures down to 35°F.
