E. coccineum is a dramatic, slender upright tree with firery red tubular flowers in sumemr.Embothrium coccineum (Chilean bush fire) will reach a height of 5m and a spread of 2.5m after 10-20 years.
Avoid watering during warm weather. (This can be a challenge with a new young tree but you just have to be careful – try to water a young tree before a heat wave, or in the cool of the night. And avoid the problem by planting early in spring, or in the autumn, so the tree roots in during cool weather.)
Avoid fertilizing, particularly with any fertilizer containing phosphorus or potassium, which can kill Embothrium.
