Hello, my name is Tylor Vu, I live in Southern California, USA. I was wondering if you can collect the CABALLERO (Caesalpinia pulcherrima) seeds for me. I would like all the different colors that you posted here. Am willing to buy the seeds from you. Let me know how much. Thank you.
Just got the Mexican-Bird-of-Paradise name from my search in Google. I just updated this spotting with its Filipino name. :)
In the States we call it Dwarf Ponciana. You have a prettier name.
