Real Tabebuia rosea nursery stock supplied by Thai Botanic in Thailand
Tabebuia rosea — real nursery stock in Thailand.

Flowers on bare branches in a short, complete flush — the whole crown turns pink at once, then finishes. One of the few tropical trees that gives a temperate-style blossom moment, and it is specified for exactly that effect.

Specification

Mature height15–25 m
Crown spread8–12 m (indicative)
Caliper range supplied5–22 cm standard, measured 1 m above soil level. Larger by arrangement.
Root-ball diameter80–140 cm (indicative)
Growth rateModerate
HabitDeciduous — leafless when flowering
FloweringPink trumpet flowers covering the bare crown; brief and simultaneous

Landscape use

Boulevards, entrance avenues, plazas and civic planting. It carries a narrower crown than most flowering trees here, so it works in tighter streets where a spreading species would not.

The flowering is concentrated into a short, complete flush, which is precisely its appeal — a marked moment in the year that a scheme can be designed around. Plant it where that event will be seen.

Site tolerance

DroughtModerate to high once established
SalinityLow to moderate (indicative)
WindModerate
SoilWell-drained; dislikes waterlogging
HeatHigh — a dry period triggers flowering
USDA zone10–12

Export notes

Supplied root-balled and wrapped. Lifted in its leafless period, which suits transit well. Phytosanitary certification accompanies every shipment. See export and compliance, and how the root ball is built, wrapped and loaded for the container on our nursery site.

This is one of the species we grow and supply regularly. If you are working to a programme, send the planting schedule and we will plan lifting and shipping around it.

Caliper is the trunk diameter measured 1.0 m above the root collar, and is the minimum each grade meets. Root balls are sized in proportion to the tree; larger balls can be prepared where a specification calls for them. Where a schedule specifies container size in litres rather than caliper, this conversion bridges the two.
