Discover the enchanting beauty of the Bauhinia purpurea var. Alba, also known as White Butterfly Tree, White Hawaiian Orchid Tree, White Hong Kong Orchid Tree, and White Orchid Tree. This species of flowering plant is part of the Fabaceae family and is native to South China, including Hong Kong, and southeastern Asia. In the United States, these extraordinary deciduous trees, which grow up to 50 ft tall, can be found blooming in Hawaii, coastal California, southern Texas, and southwest Florida. The White Orchid Tree is known for its stunning, fragrant white flowers which are 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.
