Our Handroanthus impetiginosus 'Naples White' (Tabebuia impetiginosa) flowered for the first time. It is a young tree about 10ft tall. It didn't flower heavily this first time, just a few sporadic bunches. But in a few years it will be spectacular. Still waiting for Handroanthus impetiginosus 'Alba' to flower, another white cultivar.

Hi Eric,

Do you know if the seeds will produce trees with white flowers?

Thanks,

I'm not sure. This one is grafted onto seedling T. impetiginosa. This particular tree may not as there are various other yellow, gold, pink and purple species in close proximity.

Great news Eric-that will be an awesome tree in a few years. Still nothing from my T. impetiginosa 'alba', although it's still on the small side.

Thomas Hecker donated it a few years ago.
