And another one of my Flamboyants. I'm at a bit higher altitude, above the Salt River, than alot of Cruzans, and my trees and flowers seem to respond a bit differently. Flamboyants lose virtually all their leaves, and are left with brown hanging pods. In this pic, just after blooming, the leaves are still green and rich as are the fruits. Way past peak bloom, but I love how the ground is covered with a "red carpet" of old blooms.

If I were you, Ike, I'd just go for it in the warmest, secluded part of your property. If nothing else, what a great experiment. I do that win or lose all the time! You want seeds, w/e, I'll send them to you. Just do it, man!
