Tabebuia seeds - Flower Plant for Home Gardens

Tabebuia seeds produce ornamental trees with an upright to spreading growth habit and smooth bark. These trees are well adapted to tropical and subtropical climates and are known for their seasonal flowering display. Tabebuia performs best in full sunlight with well-drained soil and moderate watering during establishment, becoming more drought-tolerant over time. Suitable for landscaping, avenue planting, and large gardens, the trees establish steadily and develop into attractive flowering specimens.
