Looking for a tree that will make your garden stand out? Look no further than the Brachychiton Acerifolius Illawarra Flame! This Australian native is a real show-stopper, with its gorgeous scarlet red flowers appearing after the leaves have dropped.

The flowers are a big hit with birds, and the deeply lobed, green and glossy leaves are simply beautiful.

The Brachychiton Acerifolius Illawarra Flame is also remarkably tolerant to dry conditions, making it a low-maintenance option for busy gardeners.

When planting, be sure to place the bud union above soil level, and water well until the tree is established. You’ll also want to fertilise at planting and after new growth appears.

If you need to prune to shape, go ahead – this tree is very resilient. So what are you waiting for? Add an Illawarra Flame to your garden today!
