Orange geiger tree

Cordia sebestena

Range: South Florida and Tropical Americas

This tough native tree makes a great urban street tree in the tropics, growing slowly to a height of 30 feet. It blooms with attractive bright orange flowers throughout the year, especially in summer. Its stiff, dark green leaves are rough and hairy, feeling much like sandpaper.
