Erythrina crista-galli, commonly known as the Coral Tree or Cockspur Coral Tree, is a striking ornamental plant admired for its bold, vibrant red flowers and sculptural form. Native to South America, this deciduous tree or large shrub is a favorite in tropical and subtropical gardens due to its exotic beauty and wildlife-friendly nature.
The tree produces long clusters of deep red, pea-shaped flowers that resemble a rooster's comb—hence the name "crista-galli," which means "cock's comb" in Latin. These nectar-rich blooms attract butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds, making it an excellent choice for pollinator-friendly landscapes.
With its twisted branches and lush green foliage, Erythrina crista-galli makes a dramatic statement as a specimen tree, in borders, or near patios. It thrives in warm climates and well-drained soil and can be grown in large containers in cooler regions.
