This is supposedly a zone 10 plant, so expect damage if frost/freeze occurs. I've not seen them in the box stores in Seminole-Volusia counties, but most stand alone nurseries/garden centers carry them.

Jatropha....very care-free bush for Central Florida. A plus in any garden, like you said, it attracts bees, butterflies, hummingbirds. You can check with Lukas nursery in Oviedo.

Jatropha blooms all year long, unless it freezes, but it's considered "self-pruning," meaning that the tips freeze back, then fall off and it comes back out. I had two of them, a tree type and a shrub type. They both froze to the ground one winter, and came back out from the base that was covered in mulch. Pretty tough plants. Also, root easily from cuttings.

They're sold at all the big-box stores, likely in the spring.

If among two or more Jatrophas available to you there is J. multifida , then I recommend that you chose the other(s). I have propagated and grown ( = kept alive) a number of J. m. for quite a few years. Disappointing.

Many times I have seen J. integerrima at Lukas.
