A small tree of a pure gold

Tabebuia chrysotricha - Dwarf Golden Tabebuia

⭐️ A small tree of a pure gold

  • 😊 Earlier we showed the video of Pink Tabebuia Tree 💗
  • Here is her golden sister in full bloom: Tabebuia chrysotricha - Dwarf Golden Tabebuia.
  • 😊 These trees are flowering now in Florida. It's a breathtaking view!
  • 😊 The Dwarf Golden Tabebuia is a small, striking tree ideal for container culture or small gardens. With its sparse crown and compact size, this tree is perfect for patios or yards where space is limited.
  • 😊 In late winter to spring, when the tree is leafless, it bursts into a stunning display of bright yellow flowers that can bloom over several weeks.
  • 😊 It's also impressively cold-hardy, able to withstand temperatures as low as 26F for a few hours.
  • 😊 Whether as a focal point or accent plant, the Dwarf Golden Tabebuia adds a touch of vibrant color to any Southern landscape.
  • 😊 Perfect candidate for container culture.

😎 When young Carambola trees are covered with fruit



😇 Young Carambola trees, planted just last year (2024) at Top Tropicals garden, have been fruiting non-stop since fall! Though small, they’re loaded with fruit, and with so many trees, we’ve had more than we knew what to do with. So, we turned our bounty into jam - and it came out absolutely delicious! Stay tuned for the recipe in our next post. 👎
