Pink Trumpet Trees Are Starting to Bloom
I love seeing this tree being planted. This is a great street, courtyard or park tree for frost free landscapes. Handroanthus heptaphyllus produces pink flowers in the spring before its canopy leafs out, a nice early season accent to a landscape. Best of all, this tree tolerates most soil types as long as they drain well, likes sunny warm locations, its roots are not invasive and it is not bothered much by pests. Have these trees pruned lightly for good structure when they are young, giving them good branching and directed growth as they mature. A great plant choice!
