Description
The listing, Lipstick Tree has ended.
This auction is for 25 seeds for the Lipstick Tree (Bixa orellana). This is a shrub or small tree. The inedible fruit is harvested for its seeds. The seeds contain annatto, which is used to color food.
This grows in zones 10 and up. It grows best in full sun. It grows from 6 to 20 feet tall. Colder zones could try growing it in a large pot.
I would love this tree in my yard but I'm afraid the dry desert won't do so well for this tree by the looks of the leaves. This tree looks like it needs to be in tropical climates (lots of heat and humidity) Good luck!
