Erythrina crista-galli (Multi) is more commonly known as the Cockspur Coral Tree, an extraordinary tree that takes center stage in any landscape it graces. With a proud height of up to 20-30 feet, this South American native becomes a living masterpiece whenever its fiery red, tubular flowers burst into bloom from late spring until early autumn. These vibrant blossoms create a stark and breathtaking contrast against the tree's dark green, broad leaves. Though it tolerates full sun to partial shade, this deciduous gem is quite thirsty for sunlight and favors well-drained soil. While its unique, curved thorns resemble a rooster's spur, earning it its name, they also serve a practical benefit by fending off pests. Remarkably resilient and requiring low water usage, the Cockspur Coral Tree is not only visually stunning but significantly low-maintenance—making it a superb choice for striking focal plantings, drought-tolerant gardens, and truly vivid landscapes.
