Cape Coral Trees
Posted by Jill Winchel, Realtor at Century 21 Sunbelt
A couple of trees that really stand out in Cape Coral, in addition to all the palm trees, are the Poinciana and the Norfolk Island Pine. Visitors to this area continue to point to these two trees and ask me about them. If you’re one of the curious, read on, and maybe take note of them the next time you’re out and about in Cape Coral.
These trees really stand out because they have a canopy shape with red/orange blossoms and they are most often planted in a wide open space due to their far reaching branches. These trees are fast growing and can reach heights of 40-50 feet. The blossoms are seen spring through mid-summer on trees as young as 4 years. They produce long brown seed pods.
If you look up and see a really tall tree, most likely it is the Norfolk Island Pine. The tallest of these trees stand out because they end up being the only visual up that high and almost look out of place amongst the shorter trees all around. These trees can grow upwards of 100 feet and are relatively thin compared to their height. They tolerate salty conditions so they are frequently seen along the coast.
We do have many palm trees here but don’t forget to enjoy the many other Cape Coral Trees also in residence.
