This large deciduous tropical tree can reach a height of 30m. It has large mid green leaves on large hollow branches. There are male and female trees of this plant. The male produces clusters of long white flower spikes but the female produces spectacular pink-red flowers that make the plant popular. Inside the small nut like fruit are many thousands of brown winged seeds.

Another spectacular tree with lobed mid green leaves reaching 15m in height. In flower they are almost leafless, allowing the sprays of scarlet red bell shaped flowers to dominate the view, and they can be seen from some distance around. There are many grafted specimens now, producing a vast array of flower shapes and colours.

This beautiful tree is an absolute sight in full bloom. From the north Queensland rainforest, it will grow 10-15m in height. It has irregular dark green lobed leaves but it at flowering time this tree truly shines. In the warmer months it is covered in orange-red waratah type flowers that attract bees and birds to their rich nectar.

Handsome yet slow growing Australian rainforest tree growing to 20m but most often half that in cultivation. Glossy green foliage up to 30cm in length forming a dense crown. A truly spectacular plant when in flower; covered with 8cm orange red flowers resembling spokes of a wheel.
