These are trees that bloom in late January to early March thought out San Diego, CA. They are native to tropical South America.

These four trees are about 40 feet tall with a spread of around 30 feet or so.
They actually can get larger than this, up to 60 feet or more in a real tropical climate.

These trees were introduced into California to the Los Angeles Arboretum in the early sixties from what I've read...and now they are common. I hear they are very easy to grow from cuttings.

Just love the colour of these and when planted together like this, they really make an impact!
