Tecomaria Esperanza is a beautiful subtropical shrub loved for its clusters of brilliant yellow trumpet-shaped flowers. Native to areas of North America like Texas and Arizona, it attracts butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators. Once established, it’s heat and drought tolerant, so it requires little care—allowing you (and the butterflies and hummingbirds) to enjoy its abundant natural beauty. In Northern areas, it can reach about 6 feet tall and wide, but in frost-free areas, it can get more than 12 feet tall and wide. Light: Grows best in full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sun per day) or part sun (morning shade with afternoon sun). Water: Drought tolerant once established but benefits from regular watering. Pruning: Can be pruned to keep it a desired size or shape but doesn’t require regular pruning. In frost-free regions, it can be pruned and grown as a small multi-trunk tree.
