Product Details
Cassia Fistula, known as Amaltas or Indian Laburnum, is India's most iconic flowering tree. Its cascading golden blossoms transform any garden or open space into a spectacular seasonal display every year.
- India's national flower tree; dramatic golden flower clusters every season.
- Grows fast and adapts beautifully to India's warm, dry climate.
- Spectacular yellow canopy from April to June before the leaves emerge.
- Drought tolerant once established; very low maintenance long term.
Sowing
- Scrape seeds before sowing: nick the hard seed coat with a nail file, then soak in warm water for 24 hours. This step is essential for good germination.
- Sow 2-3 cm deep in a large nursery pot or bag. We recommend Ugaoo's Organic Veggie Mix for a strong start.
- Best time to sow: February to May, when temperatures are warm.
- Keep in a warm, bright spot and maintain consistent moisture.
Germination
- Seeds sprout in 10-20 days after scarification and soaking.
- Keep soil warm and moist during this period.
- Once sprouts appear, move to full direct sun.
Transplanting
- Once the seedling reaches 30-40 cm, transplant into a larger pot or directly into the ground.
- Handle the taproot carefully to avoid damage.
- Water well after transplanting and keep in partial shade for 3-5 days before full sun.
Growing
- Needs full direct sun, at least 6 hours daily.
- Water every 2-3 days when young. Once established after the first year, it is highly drought tolerant.
- Feed with cow manure every 20 days in the first growing year.
- We suggest Ugaoo's Neem Oil Spray for pest control on young seedlings.
- Give the tree room to grow; it can reach 10-15 metres at maturity.
Aftercare & Post-Harvest
- Amaltas is a perennial tree that becomes more spectacular every year.
- Water regularly in the first 2 years to establish a strong root system.
- Once established, it is largely self-sufficient.
- Light pruning after flowering keeps the tree shapely.
Harvesting
- Flowering begins from year 3-5 from seed, typically April to June in India.
- Seed pods form after flowering and dry on the tree. Collect dried pods to harvest seeds for re-sowing.
