Grow your own South African bonsai from seed.
The spectacular Lucky Bean Tree is known for its brilliant scarlet-red flowers, sculptural trunk and distinctive bright red seeds. Naturally a tree in its South African homeland, Erythrina lysistemon can also be grown and trained as a striking bonsai, creating a wonderfully unusual long-term growing project.
With patience, pruning and careful training, your young tree can gradually be shaped into its own miniature form — making this much more than a packet of seeds.
