Description:
The Orange Jubilee, scientifically known as Tecoma x 'Orange Jubilee,' is a vibrant and showy shrub that can thrive in the Arizona landscape, particularly in regions with a hot and arid climate. Known for its brilliant orange trumpet-shaped flowers and rapid growth, this plant adds a burst of color and charm to gardens and outdoor spaces.

One of the most striking features of the Orange Jubilee is its brilliant orange flowers. The trumpet-shaped blossoms are typically large and vividly colored, creating a stunning display of orange against the backdrop of green foliage. These flowers are known for attracting pollinators, including hummingbirds and butterflies, making the plant a valuable addition to the landscape.

The Orange Jubilee typically reaches heights of 6 to 12 feet, with a similar spread, creating a dense and bushy form. It is well-suited to Arizona's hot and arid climate, thriving in full sun and requiring well-drained soil. This shrub is drought-tolerant once established, making it a valuable choice for water-wise landscaping.

One of the advantages of the Orange Jubilee is its rapid growth rate, allowing it to establish quickly in the landscape and provide a profusion of colorful blooms.

Maintenance of the Orange Jubilee includes regular pruning to shape the shrub and remove dead or overgrown branches. Deadheading (removing spent flowers) can also promote continuous blooming. This shrub is generally low-maintenance and is known for its resilience in desert conditions.

In summary, the Orange Jubilee is a vibrant and eye-catching choice for Arizona landscapes, especially in regions with a hot and arid climate. Its brilliant orange flowers, rapid growth, and ability to attract pollinators make it a valuable addition to gardens and outdoor spaces, adding a burst of color and charm to the desert environment.
