Description

Bauhinia is a fairly fast-growing evergreen or nearly evergreen tree growing up to 4 - 17 metres tall with a short often gnarled bole. The leaves are bilobed, shaped like an ox hoof & they are 6 to 15 centimeters long and broad.

Bauhinia Purpurea Alba also known as White Orchid Tree is known for its stunning, fragrant white flowers with splash of pink , up to 5-inches in size and bloom in astounding profusion. Its leaves are 10-20 cm in length and breadth, including unique rounded and bilobed features at the base and the apex. Once the blooming period is over, the tree bears distinctive pods, each reaching up to 30 cm and containing 12 to 16 seeds. These plants can flower all year round.

Environment

Bauhinia can succeed in full sun to partial shade. They prefer fertile, well-drained but moisture retentive soil and moderate watering.

Landscape Uses

It is used as an ornamental and hedge plant in the gardening.

Flowering plants need access to bright sunlight to remain healthy and blooming. An easy facing balcony is the best place for the plants in Indian conditions. Try keeping them in bright sunlight but also where they get a little cover from the harsh afternoon sun. Some plants which are a little tender tend to burn due to the same.

Plants with thin leaves need daily watering and ones with thick leaves need watering 3-4 times a week. This will also depend on the season. Generally during the blooming period, plants love a lot of water. Try keeping the soil moist. During winters it is better to cut back on watering.

Keep the plants in a well drained soil with a drainage hole at the bottom. This will help to avoid over watering. Take care as to not leave stagnant water on top of the soil. Fertilise the plant once in 2-3 weeks during its blooming period. Do not fertilise it in winters.
