Tabebuia Chrysotricha

Design with this plant

Overview

The Golden Trumpet Tree (Tabebuia chrysotricha) is a striking, fast-growing deciduous tree that reaches heights of 20-25 feet. Renowned for its vibrant yellow blooms in early spring, it features a moderate canopy spread of 15-20 feet, making it an ideal focal piece for sunny regions. Prefers well-drained soil and is drought-tolerant once established. Offers minimal shade due to its open branching, adding year-round interest with its furrowed bark.
