I got two Flamboyant trees from a nursery by dit not dro...

1ft to light, direct
8” pot with drainage
Last watered 10 months ago
How is the humidity? These type of fine-leaved plants would appreciate some additional humidity.

Check the soil moisture. Maybe a little low. Dig your finger into the soil and estimate. Water when top half of the pot is dry
I’ve grown a lot of these trees from seeds and minor in partial shade but being your leaves are browning and shriveling up that’s not good these little trees do drop their leaves, but they tip you turn yellow, and then drop them naturally browning and shriveling they could be getting sunburnt would be my guess οΏΌ mine tend to like a lot of water and a breeze and partial shade, and that’s in the heat of Texas οΏΌ
You can also try repotting them and adding some manure sounds gross, but they do dig it thoroughly mixed into potting soil
I'm from South Africa,Western Cape so this is our coldest Months now up to end of August,then I want to plant them outside in the natural soil,I do give them water if the soil is getting dry,I'm testing the soil with a moisture meter.Think the reason can be to much sunlight but then again these plants want direct sunlight.
