Market price from $134.99 to $299.99

Bauhinia blakeana (Standard) is also known as the Hong Kong Orchid Tree, and it's a botanical marvel that infuses every landscape with a touch of tropical elegance. Belonging to the 'trees' category, Bauhinia blakeana stands out with its dauntless display of vivid pink to purple, orchid-like blooms from late fall until early spring. The bold, bilobed green leaves complement the magnificent flower show while making a beautiful contrast against the tree's dark grey bark. Usually reaching an impressive height between 20 to 40 feet, this semi-evergreen beauty boasts an equally attractive silhouette in any environment, from full sunlight to light shade. Bauhinia blakeana is as practical as it is beautiful, requiring regular watering and well-drained soil for best results. An additional perk? Its fragrant, nectar-rich blooms act as a magnet for bees and butterflies, adding a delightful dose of wildlife to your garden. Adaptable, aesthetically stunning, and friendly to local fauna, the Hong Kong Orchid Tree is an undisputed star of the flora world.
