Golden Trumpet Tree (Handroanthus chrysotrichus) is a spectacular spring-flowering tropical deciduous tree that covers bare branches in masses of bright golden-yellow trumpet flowers. Rated for USDA zones 10A–11 by UF/IFAS, it is frost-sensitive and best suited to frost-free south Florida, though it may survive in protected NE Florida sites with freeze protection. For sale in St. Augustine, FL from $34.95.
Plant in full sun for best flower production; this tropical tree thrives in Florida's heat and humidity and requires open sun exposure to bloom prolifically in spring.
Water regularly after planting to establish; once established, Handroanthus chrysotrichus is drought-tolerant but benefits from supplemental irrigation during extended dry periods in zone 9b.
Grows in most well-drained sandy or loamy Florida soils; fertilize annually in spring with a palm/tropical fertilizer; mulch the root zone to conserve moisture and protect roots from any rare frost events at the northern edge of its range.
