Handroanthus (Tabebuia) hybrids

Featured Replies

These Tabebuia hybrids are created by crossing Handroanthus chrysotrichus (Golden Trumpet Tree), H. umbellatus (Yellow Trumpet Tree) and H. impetiginosus (Pink Trumpet Tree) along with F1 hybrids. A whole range of colors and leaf shape/sizes are the result.

We planted 7 in a grouping last spring. Each is a distinct tree and the colors range from white, purple, maroon, lemon yellow, pink and yellow, and a dwarf yellow. So fa here is what is blooming this year;

Hybrid 1- white flowers with a pink blush and yellow buds and throats

This one isn't flowering yet but has very distinct leaves. The leaves are very large and dark green and haven't shed yet like those on other trees. The flowers are supposed to be pinkish yellow/apricot

Nice truss size on Hybrid 2.

Very nice Eric; I'd be interested in seeing the others when they bloom, particularly the purplish one.

They had flowered last year when we planted them. They grew very well last year. But I have noticed that some of the late ones are shedding buds. Guess since it was a warm winter then the last month has been mostly low to mid 80s the new growth is pushing out and the buds withering. Not just the hybrids but also some other species I was hoping to have flower for the first time.
