| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| Tecoma stans 'Gold Star' has a very long flowering season, from early summer to late fall. This is a shrub or small tree that reaches 15-20 feet in height and can be pruned heavily after flowering to keep it compact . The flowers are bright yellow in color, 2 inches long with trumpet shape and clustered at the branch tips, hence the name Yellow Bells. The fruit is a "bean type" capsule about 8 inches long that ripens to a chocolate brown color. |
