no only in tropical areas like hawaii,and central and south florida

Royal Poinciana trees will grow well in Florida up to just North of Tampa, Orlando, and Daytona; however, in the Northern Range they can be destroyed by severe freezes, requiring replanting every 20-25 years or so.

I've also seen them grow in the Brownsville/McAllen Rio Grande Valley area of Texas, and also in Arizona in Phoenix and Yuma, and Palm Springs/Salton Sea/El Centro in California. Again, severe freezes can destroy the trees to the ground in those areas, unless unusual steps are taken to protect them. They only grow in the desert with good water, otherwise, you're wasting your time.

Inland Coastal California is a great place to grow Poincianas. There are some beautiful examples in San Diego and its Eastern Suburbs if you look hard enough.

The worst problem with these trees (after actually finding one for sale), is that they get hacked to death, I've seen some beautiful trees butchered by overeagar yard men. Let them be!

They grow very fast with good water and a hot South-facing location, which keeps them happy in winter. Very worth having if you possess a good yard and warm wall.

What is the best fertilizer for royal poinciana?

A slow release fertilizer may be best for royal poinciana trees (Delonix regia).Specifically, royal poinciana trees are native to the dry deciduous forests of Madagascar. They can tolerate drought and salt. They do not need the fertilizer treatments that edibles and ornamentals may require. But they may accept natural fertilizers that resemble their native habitat in the slow but direct and steady dispensing of nutrients.Otherwise, they may appreciate complete fertilizers that are lower in phosphorus (P), and either higher in nitrogen (N) than potassium (K) or balanced between the two. Common choices in that vein tend toward percentage nutrient ingredient weights of 3:1:2 such as the 12 (N) 4 (P) 8 (K); 3:1:3, such as the 15 (N) 5 (P) 15 (K); or 4:1:2 such as 16 (N) 4 (P) 8 (K).


How old does a royal poinciana tree have to be to flower?

A height of 35-40 feet [10.668 - 12.192 meters] and a width of 40-60 feet [12.192 - 18.288 meters] is what a Royal Poinciana [Delonix regia] matures to. Woody plants such as shrubs and trees never stop growing. It's just that the mature size is the point at which the processes of growth are stronger than the breakdown processes of decay. After that point, any step forward in growth is cancelled out by the ever more assertive steps backward into old age, decline and death.
