Tabebuia ochracea is a South American timber tree from the Cerrado and Pantanal of Brazil, valued for its showy yellow spring flowers that appear after the leaves drop. It is a large tree best grown outdoors in warm, frost-free climates.
Tabebuia ochracea, known as corteza amarilla in Spanish, is a timber tree native to South America, Cerrado and Pantanal vegetation in Brazil. It is also known as Handroanthus ochraceus or Tecoma ochracea. It is often confused with the Golden Trumpet Tree, which is known as Handroanthus chrysotrichus or Tabebuia chrysotricha. It is a seasonal flowering tree, blossoming only during spring (September). During this time, all leaves fall and only flowers remain in the crown.
There are three subspecies:
Silver trumpet tree · Pink manjack · Cuban pink trumpet · Pink trumpet-tree · White ipê · Trumpet-tree
