The beautiful yellow flowers, 2" long, in clusters 8-14" long, bloom June-August. The seed pods are long and orange, red or salmon-colored papery in color. Chinese Flame trees are drought tolerant and can tolerate poor drainage, poor soils, smog and temperature extremes. The beautiful flower clusters attract birds and bees.
