Here's a pic of a Flamboyant from last winter. The C. pulcherrima is more like a huge shrub here, and called Pride of Barbados. I'll show you both in bloom tomorrow.

Ike, I can tell you they are pretty hardy. My Flamboyants and Australian Pines were the only trees to survive hurricane Hugo. They are over 70 years old.
