Welcome Spring with Sunny, Tropical Blooms!
Why Yellow Trumpet Trees?
A native of South America, the flowering Yellow Trumpet Tree makes an excellent landscape specimen or patio tree. With bright yellow blooms atop a signature asymmetrical form, this easy-growing tree adds tropical color to even the toughest landscape areas.
The Yellow Trumpet Tree, or Tabebuia caraiba, blooms in early spring with clusters of trumpet-shaped golden-yellow flowers. The flowers are some of the first to welcome spring - and they attract bees, hummingbirds, and other insects to your garden. And while this semi-evergreen tree will maintain its attractive, silvery foliage for most of the year, it will drop its leaves before blooming.
This flowering tree is ideal for adding a splash of color along streets or driveways in warmer climates, since it's incredibly heat- and drought-tolerant and can grow in nearly any soil.

Yellow Trumpet Tree
This plant arrived a little damaged from the shipping. I kept it on a pot on a place it received 4 to 6hours of sun since I purchased in April 2025. Its leaves got a little damaged by the sun but it grow fast and healthy. March 2026 I decided to plant on the ground and the roots were amazing and ready to be planted on the ground. Now it is on full sun and I hope it can prosper on the Texas heat. During end of winter it dropped its leaves and gave two large blooms with around 10 flowers each cluster. It is a fast grower, resilient to draught and heat and I couldnt be more happier with how it is growing. I wanted to wait for the year to pass to give this review, and I think it was a great decision because I have been learning a lot. Highly recommend using native plants but this one was just close to my heart.
Update*
Shes standing tall on her own and blooming. So cute!
I'm in St. Lucie County,
I'm in St. Lucie County, little guy survived the hurricane last fall and is thriving. One you give them fertilizer these little things explode!
Love it
Showed up full of life. Very vibrate. I planted it immediately and it's doing very well.
Growing up
I received the tree with a lot big leaves and higher than I expected. It’s growing pretty well so far. I will post updates after a few months.
