Choose a location with full sun as the plant is a desert native. At least six hours of sun is preferable, though the plant is shade tolerant. Without enough sun, the shrub produces fewer blooms.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater: \u003c\/strong\u003eGrow your Tecoma in moderately moist, well-draining soil. The plant doesn’t like wet feet and too-moist soil can lead to root rot. To add better drainage to your soil, mix in some compost or other organic matter to your soil before planting. Water weekly, or more often in times of extreme drought.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaintenance: \u003c\/strong\u003eOnce Tecoma plants are established, they require very little maintenance. To get a bushier plant and more blooms, pinch off spent flowers and seed pods. If the plant gets damaged, it responds well to being cut back in the winter. No fertilizer is required for growing your Tecoma.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fast-Growing-Trees.com","offers":[{"title":"5 Gallon","offer_id":48860217770154,"sku":"12986","price":16.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6566\/3658\/files\/wxl29pwtrs6s_52098520-23d7-41ec-a3a9-1bf47e8faf4f.jpg?v=1784865314","url":"https:\/\/fastgrowingtrees.shop\/products\/sundance-tecoma-plant-8cqxlt","provider":"Wasatch \u0026 West Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
