Illawarra Flame Tree / Brachychiton acerifolius/ Ø40cm / 2.2m h / "Victor"

Name: Victor

Height: 2.1m

Diameter: 40cm

Bold, architectural, and unmistakably Australian, the Illawarra Flame Tree brings a a unique sculptural shape to any space, indoor or out. Grown in a pot, it develops a smooth, swollen trunk that hints at its drought-hardy roots, while its broad, maple-like leaves fan out in lush, glossy green. Over time, it forms a striking indoor silhouette—clean-lined, minimal, and full of quiet drama.

Though famed for its fiery red flowers in the wild, indoors it's grown for its form and foliage. It thrives in bright, indirect light and asks little in return. As it matures, the swollen base stores water, making it forgiving if you forget a watering here or there.

Perfect for adding height, presence, and an Australian story to your space. Best placed near a window with good light and room to grow into its elegant shape.
