Erythrina variegata is a fast-growing, deciduous tree known for its spreading, symmetrical canopy and thorny branches. It features distinctive trifoliate leaves, often with yellow variegation, and produces dense clusters of brilliant scarlet flowers in spring before new foliage emerges. This multipurpose species is widely used as a windbreak, shade tree, or ornamental specimen in tropical landscapes. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, showing high tolerance for salt and drought.
