00:00Have you ever seen a beautiful flowering tree with two different flower colors blooming right next to each other?
00:07If you look closely at this stunning yellow polyandroid plant, also scientifically known as Cascabella davicia or davicia peruviana,
00:18you might be surprised to find both bright saffron yellow flowers and soft peach or apricot blossoms sharing the same
00:27green canopy.
00:28In South Asia, this incredibly popular tropical evergreen shrub is widely known as the canard flower or yellow canard plum.
00:38Today we are diving into the mystery behind these dual-colored blossoms,
00:44explaining how to grow this resilient tree and uncovering a massive hidden secret about its toxicity that every homeowner should
00:53know.
00:53To understand why one plant can show of multiple vibrant colors, we have to look at how the Cascabella davicia
01:02grows in nature.
01:03While the standard yellow polyandroid flower is typically a bright, trumpet-shaped gold,
01:09it naturally possesses variations that include a stunning peach-cellumon hue and even an elegant cream white.
01:18When you see a single yellow canard plant displaying two distinct flower colors simultaneously,
01:25it is usually due to the creative gardening technique called grafting,
01:30where branches of different variations are joined together.
01:33Alternatively, it can happen naturally when two separate seeds sprout so closely together in the soil that their trunk spews
01:42over time,
01:43creating the ultimate visual illusions of a multicolored masterpiece.
01:49If you want to add an explosion of color to your garden,
01:53mastering basic yellow polyandar care is surprisingly simple because this plant is an absolute survivor.
02:01The yellow canard plant thrives in full sun, tolerates extreme heat, and is highly drought-resistant,
02:09making it perfect for low-maintenance landscaping.
02:12For the best growth result, plant your Davicia peruviana in well-draining sandy oil
02:23and allow the earth to dry out completely between watering, as it cannot handle soggy roots.
02:30Because it stays lush and green throughout the year and boosts an exceptionally long blooming season from summer to fall,
02:38it has become a staple ornamental tree for Pavia's and Backyard Worldwide.
02:45However, despite its practicum beauty and vibrant color variants,
02:50there is a serious dark side to this popular garden shrub that requires strict questions.
02:56Every single part of the cascabella, the vishia, including the waxy green leaves, the elegant trumpet petals,
03:04and the sticky white sap is incredibly poisonous due to natural defenses chemicals called cardiac glycosides.
03:12This high level of yellow polyandrotoxicity is exactly why grazing animals like goats and cows won't touch it and why
03:22common garden best leave it completely alone.
03:25The highest concentration of these dangerous toxins is hidden safely inside its green, diamond-shaped root,
03:33which contains seeds commonly referred to as the lucky nut, though they are anything but lucky if ingested.
03:41Fortunately, you can still safely enjoy the gorgeous yellow and peach flowers of the caner plant in your yard by
03:49practicing a yellow essential safety habit.
03:52Always wear thick gardener gloves when pruning the branches to keep the toxic milky sap of your skin.
04:00Wash your hands thoroughly with soap afterwards and ensure that curious pets or small children are kept away from fallen
04:08seeds bark.
04:10When treated this proper respect, this magnificent tropical tree is the true wonder of nature
04:16that can transform any boring landscape into vibrant sanctuary.
