Does anyone here have any experience of planting Flame Trees. I would like to plant two of these to ‘Frame’ my gardens and wonder if anyone can help with advice on planting etc.
I’d like to buy half grown trees, so that I get to enjoy them before I croak, and have found several for sale, ready for planting.
I have four questions really:
When is the best time in Thailand to transplant trees?
Any tips on transplanting large trees?
If a don’t plant a large (older) tree, how long does a Flame tree take to grow to, say fifteen meters or so?
I particularly like the shade these trees give, but I’m worried about roots getting under my house – What distance from the house should I plant, and can I use a submerged wall to prevent roots growing under the house?
