Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Wonderfully peach scented large yellow flowers are borne in good sized clusters in summer on this easily grown tropical tree. The large tropical foliage and form gives it a palm-like look making it a great addition to sunny tropical gardens or in containers. Easily grown in a patio pot, needs a fast draining soil. In colder climates, let it go dry in fall and store in a garage or other area where temperatures remain above freezing. Pull it out in the spring and start watering it and it will grow and bloom again.
