Bauhinia tomentosa, commonly known as the Yellow Bauhinia, Yellow Bell Orchid Tree, or St. Thomas Tree, is a beautiful and versatile small tree or large shrub. Native to tropical and subtropical regions of Africa and Asia, it is highly valued for its distinctive foliage and showy, bell-shaped yellow flowers. The leaves are a key identifying feature, as they are bilobed, resembling the wings of a butterfly or a camel’s hoof. Its vibrant flowers are typically a soft yellow with a dark maroon or black spot at the base of one of the petals, adding a striking contrast.
This plant is a popular choice for gardens and landscapes due to its ornamental value and low maintenance needs. Bauhinia tomentosa thrives in full to partial sun and prefers well-draining soil. While young plants require regular watering to establish their roots, mature specimens are known to be quite drought-tolerant. It is a fast-growing plant that can be pruned to maintain its shape and encourage a bushier growth habit. The ‘Yellow Bauhinia’ is not only a beautiful decorative plant but also plays an important ecological role, as its flowers attract a variety of pollinators, including bees and butterflies.
