Leaves are thickly papery, shallowly cordate at the base, apically lobed to 1\/3–1\/2 of the leaf length, with rounded or subacute lobe apices; both surfaces are glabrous, or the abaxial surface is sparsely puberulent. Racemes are lateral or terminal, few-flowered; petals are pinkish-red and oblanceolate. Pods are strap-shaped, flat and slightly falcate; at maturity, the pods dehisce, with woody valves twisting to eject the seeds; seeds are suborbicular and flat, with a dark brown testa. Flowering occurs usually from September to November, and fruiting from February to March. This species is widely cultivated, serving as an ornamental tree for gardens, a street tree and a greening tree; its bark, flowers and roots are used medicinally, but the bark is highly toxic and strictly prohibited for oral administration.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"SeedChoiceX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48141434978459,"sku":"UP-1704-choice","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/7909\/4939\/files\/ae1c9d86a8ad55ace54b5c9e670770bf.jpg?v=1773715798","url":"https:\/\/seedchoicex.com\/products\/buy-bauhinia-purpurea-seeds-purple-orchid-tree-seeds-for-sale","provider":"SeedChoiceX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
