Latania Posts: 399 Joined: 11/27/2004	Yes, Lek, that's it. Not only the flowers but the 5-leaf arrangement shows this is a Tabebuia. Let me know when the seeds are ripe and I'll come get them. Thank you!

Skeeter Posts: 999 Joined: 07/23/2003	The seeds germinate very easily. I think as soon as the pod splits open, the seeds are viable. -------------------------

Sawatdee Posts: 3321 Joined: 03/20/2005	John, I looked at the beans today and they're turning brown. When they break open, I'll save them for you. I probably can mail you the seeds in the envelope, unless you're coming up to Merritt Island.....feel free to stop by. E-mail me and let me know.

Latania Posts: 399 Joined: 11/27/2004	Sparky, thanks for the offer. What Sawatdee has already said she could give me should be enough. I know from my yellow Tabebuia umbellata that one tree can produce thousands of seeds. I don't need all that many from the pink tree.

Sawatdee Posts: 3321 Joined: 03/20/2005	Brian, the pink tabuie seeds are ready to be picked now. I'll mail them to you and John Kennedy, unless you want to pick them up. The Bromeliad you mentioned must be Aechmea 'Forster's favorite' with the rust/green color leaves, mine also has a lot of flowers hanging from the pot.
