The royal poinciana is native to Madagascar but is now found in many tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Legend has it that the crown of thorns placed on Jesus' head was made from the branches of a poinciana tree. As a result, the tree is considered a symbol of Christ's suffering. The vibrant colour of its flowers is also said to represent the flames of the Holy Spirit.
