Erythrina humeana Seeds

Common Names: Dwarf coral tree, Kleinkoraalboom or Natal Coral Tree

The dwarf coral tree is a perfect tree or flowering shrub for the small garden, especially for people who love the scarlet flowers of the common coral tree (Erythrina lysistemon) but don't have the space for a large tree.

Its small dimensions make it ideally suited to high density housing complexes where garden space is limited.

It produces an impressive display of scarlet red flowers en-masse, which is a favorite with many different birds who enjoy the nectar.

Almost as though it was designed for the garden, the dwarf coral tree produces its flowers just at window height which allows you to do your bird watching from the comfort of your favorite sofa.

Similar to the ploughbreaker (Erythrina zeyheri) and the rare tamboekie doring (Erythrina acanthocarpa), the dwarf coral tree can tolerate cold and frost by going into winter dormancy and simply re-sprouting from the large swollen tuberous roots as soon as spring arrives.

The dwarf coral tree is easy to grow and is very drought hardy. It thrives under normal garden conditions providing it gets full sun and doesn't have wet feet.
