Looking for these Caesalpinia seeds

I have some Caesalpinia Pulcherrima Red BOP seeds and Caesalpinia decapetala seeds,and also growing some Pink (Caesalpinia Rosea) the pink ones are about 1 ft tall this is the first year for them so do not have seeds for them.

Looking for some of the Caesalpinia Aurea , C. Cream colored one also, C. Mexican BOP, also C. Gilliesii, if anyone has these and want to trade for some of the above.

Thanks, hopefully someone has some of these.

Hi, Antoinette. Your post looks like it never got answered and maybe you are no longer looking for the seeds.

I work at the Jacksonville, Florida, Zoo & Gardens. We have several
Caesalpinia pulcherrima trees - the usual bright orange/yellow, light pink, and a light yellow. I was told by my hort supervisors at the zoo that these were all the same species, just different varieties of colors of C. pulcherrima (but I doubted that info, which led me to search for clues, which led me to your request for seeds).

We also have C. mexicana at the zoo & gardens. All the trees are currently hanging with seed pods. I plan to gather some for myself and could possibly get some for you also, if you think it is the rosea and other species you are seeking.

Hi Jeremy,

I would love some if you do get a couple... I did purchase the red ones in five gallon pots and hopefully they will have flowers next year, we moved and I had to start over.. Very interested so keep me in mind.. Thank you. There is a cream colored one that I've been trying to track down too.

I'll send you a D-mail, Antoinette, so I can keep track (hopefully, if my empty brain allows!) of the request and send you some Caesalpinia pods from the zoo collection. We can both enjoy seeing what will grow from them. The red/yellow, pink, and light yellow flowering trees are all in fairly close proximity, so maybe some wonderful new cultivar will spring forth!
