BAHAMA LYSILOMA (a Bahamian in Istanbul)



I welcome this tropical and sub tropical plant to Istanbul . Grown in a pot at 7th floor . It is a fun plant to grow. First year didnt bloom I pruned then in second year it bloomed and produced pod.
Seems to be very demanding for water so I irrigate and it responded well to persistent irrigation.
Yet literature says it is highly resistant to drought. So next year I will treat it with minumum water. I keep observing this tropical plant in Istanbul.
Additional information is also curious.. Wood has rich in Mahogany color and fairly heavy hard and durable . Its wood calls Sabicu wood which valued in shipbuilding !!

Another note...salt resistant...
