Flame Tree

Flame Tree is delightful, but dangerous

Flame Tree is a delightfully colourful tree with its flame coloured flowers. However we learn to regret having planted it when it starts to shed its thorn laden branches, often quite dangerously. Removing it is hard work. However, our Cut'n'Paste MetGel Weed Gel is there to help. The metsulfuron-laden gel makes short work of rendering the stump inactive after cutting and pasting and preventing any regrowth. If there are any roots showing above the ground these should also have a layer of bark scaped off and treated with gel.

🌳 Leaves: Variable—young trees have deeply lobed leaves, while mature trees have simple, ovate leaves.
🔥 Flowers: Bright red, bell-shaped, clustered together when the tree sheds its leaves.
🌱 Seed Pods: Large, boat-shaped, dark brown pods with yellow seeds inside (covered in irritating hairs).
🌲 Size & Shape: Can grow up to 30m tall, with a straight trunk and a spreading canopy.

Do not dispose of the remains ‘over the fence’ as it will simple take off again.
