Description: The plant I ship is about 2-3ft tall. Brya ebenus, also known as the Jamaican Rain Tree, is an incredibly unique and attractive small tree. With a mature height of 10-20 feet and an erupting growth habit that cascades onto the surrounding area with heavier and longer branches, the Rain Tree is a great way to add character to your landscape. The evergreen foliage of the Rain Tree is comprised of tiny leaves that are highly drought-tolerant and thrive in full sun. During the warmer months and after a rain, clusters of beautiful yellow and orange flowers burst into bloom along the branches and attract butterflies and hummingbirds. With these striking color accents and a moderate water requirement, the Rain Tree makes a superb addition to any garden. The Rain Tree can tolerate cold temperatures down to the 30's Fahrenheit, so it is suitable for growing in USDA Hardiness Zones 10-11, although a cold-protective pot should be provided when grown in colder areas. The tree should also be pruned regularly to keep its growth in check, as the mature height can reach up to 30 feet. With the right care, a Brya ebenus can bring life and beauty to your yard all year round. This incredible tree is definitely worth planting for its unique form, foliage and incredible bloom power. The Jamaican rain tree is a small drought-resistant tree that can grow around 20–30 feet tall and produces long, drooping branches. It has small, waxy 2-3 parted compound leaves that often appear to be simple. The leaves are densely borne in alternate formation on short spurs that are produced on the main stems.[3] The bright yellow flowers develop on short indeterminate (racemose) inflorescences. They are typically (for the subfamily Faboideae) pea-like and hermaphroditic, with bilateral symmetry and (not so typically) heterostyly. The fruits are legumes, which are common for the family Fabaceae. As its name suggests, this tree blooms just after it rains. The Jamaican Rain tree produces a short inflorescence of tiny bright yellow pea-shaped flowers, which attract bees. Furthermore, its fruits are thin two-jointed pods about 1 inch (2.54 cm) long. To propagate use seeds. Although little information has been published about its growth requirements, it exhibits a slender growth habit. Also, its native habitat of scrublands suggests it requires well-drained soils. Brya ebenus (Jamaican Rain tree) is a valuable tropical hardwood, known in the trade as cocus wood. Cocus wood is durable and has a history of use in making musical instruments (such as flutes). In summary, the spectacular flowering habit of the Jamaican rain tree makes it popular in any garden setting. You can also use Brya ebenus on the seaside. Additional uses include: as an accent tree, in the courtyard, in a large planter, in a median strip, and xerophytic collection. The Jamaican Rain tree also makes an excellent bonsai plant. Brya ebenus performs best with full sun exposure. It is best outdoors where it can receive sunlight all day unimpeded. It requires full intensity sunlight to avoid issues that keep it from reaching its full potential. Type:Trees, Tropicals and Tender PerennialsTop Height:20-30 ft.
