Peltophorum Inerme (Yellow Flamboyant)

The Yellow Flamboyant (Peltophorum inerme) is one of the most rewarding flowering shade trees for UAE gardens — a tree that delivers on every level. At 3.5–4.0 m tall with a strong 60–70 mm caliper trunk, supplied in a 170L pot, this is a mature specimen that combines a broad, spreading canopy with a spectacular display of bright golden-yellow flower clusters. When in bloom, the entire crown lights up in a blaze of yellow that rivals even the most celebrated flowering trees in the region.

Key Features

• Spectacular golden-yellow flower clusters — a vivid, long-lasting seasonal display
• Specimen-grade size — 3.5–4.0 m height, 60–70 mm caliper, in a 170L pot
• Broad, spreading canopy with fine, feathery bipinnate foliage for dappled shade
• Exceptionally heat and drought-tolerant once established — ideal for UAE conditions
• Fast-growing with a strong, architectural form year-round

Why It Works in the UAE

Peltophorum inerme thrives in the UAE's hot, sunny climate and is widely used across the Gulf in parks, boulevards, and large garden landscapes. It handles full sun and intense heat with ease, and once established, requires minimal water. Its combination of generous shade and brilliant flowering makes it one of the most practical and beautiful trees available for UAE gardens — a tree that earns its place in the landscape every single day.
