Tecoma stans 'Orange Jubilee'
The 'Orange Jubilee' leaves are deep, glossy green, and very bright. The flowers are orange, long, tubular, and bell-shaped. It's considered semi-evergreen, but in Texas, it usually loses its leaves in the winter. However, it will grow in the spring unless it's a freezing winter. If it doesn't freeze to the ground, it's recommended to prune it to about 3 inches to encourage fuller growth.
This shrub grows fast and thrives in full, hot sun. It's suitable for southwestern exposure with lots of reflected heat. 'Orange Jubilee' can handle various soil types and grow to over 10 feet tall and 6 feet wide. It doesn't need much water and is a low-maintenance plant option.
In North Texas, the Esperanza will only reach a max height of 5'-6'.

Winter Shipping: We will continue to ship throughout winter. If you prefer, we are happy to hold your order until spring; please include that request in your shipping notes.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
