Tecoma Orange Jubilee

Tecoma orange jubilee

Tecoma Orange Jubilee is a highly prized flowering plant for its long flowering season, Summer to late fall, and its highly ornamental bright orange trumpet shaped flowers held in sprays at branch tips. They grow in plentiful, showy clumps at the end of each branch. The leaves have pointed edges, and their glossy dark green colour contrasts deeply against the bright orange clusters.

The blossoms are bright orange and tubular; they look like elongated bells, which is why some people call them Orange Bells. The flowers attract pollinators like hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees.  These shrubs are inexpensive, hardy, fast growers, and relatively drought-resistant.
