A few days ago I showed a different color of tabachine. This is the more usual color—and my favorite. Butterflies love them. So do I. Although my gardener calls the small bush varieties of the poinciana tabachine and the large tree varieties flamboyan, sites on the internet call the larger variety both tabachine and Royal Poinciana and this smaller variety a dwarf poinciana.

My grandmother had some of these. She called them something different. I always loved the vibrant colors.

Do you remember what she called them? They are a variety of poinciana.

Maybe Mexican Bird of Paradise. I’ll try to ask her this weekend and get back to you.
