The Candlestick Cassia Plant (Senna Alata), also known as Candelabra Plant, and Christmas Candles, is a show-stopping plant noted for its gorgeous blooms and unique foliage. The leaves are often used as an extract to serve a variety of purposes. Due to its long and prolific blooms, these plants are very popular with bees and butterflies. This plant is recommended for USDA Zones 8-11. In tropical climates, Cassia alata becomes tree-like, reaching heights of 12 foot or more. In subtropical areas that experience occasional light freezes, the plant is more shrubby. During years with hard freezes, the plant behaves more like a perennial, regenerating quickly from the roots and blooming by late summer.
