Cape honeysuckle (Tecoma capensis) is a fast-growing, heat-tolerant shrub or vine with blazing orange, red, yellow, or apricot flowers that attract hummingbirds and butterflies.

🌞 Growing & Care Guide for Cape Honeysuckle (Common Names: Cape Honeysuckle)
• Botanical Name: Tecoma capensis
• Family: Bignoniaceae
• Plant Type: Shrub, vine
• Mature Size: 3–10 ft. tall, 7–10 ft. wide
• Sun Exposure: Full sun, partial shade
• Soil Type: Moist but well-drained
• Soil pH: Acidic, neutral, alkaline
• Bloom Time: Fall, spring, winter
• Flower Color: Yellow, red, orange
• Hardiness Zones: 9–11 (USDA)
• Native Area: Africa
• Warning: Invasive in humid regions such as Florida and Australia—plant with caution.
☀️ Sunlight & Soil
• Grows best in full sun for vibrant blooming; tolerates partial shade, especially in hot climates.
• Performs well in almost any soil type as long as it’s moist and drains well.
• Thrives in acidic, neutral, and alkaline soils; also salt-tolerant for coastal gardens.
• Avoid excessively shaded areas, which reduce flowering vigor.
💧 Watering
• Water weekly (about 1 inch) in full sun or 1–2 times monthly in partial shade.
• Once established after one year, becomes drought-tolerant with deep roots.
• Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot; ensure soil dries slightly between waterings.
🌱 Fertilization
• Requires little feeding; only apply a balanced fertilizer annually if soil is nutrient-deficient.
• A late-summer fertilizer boost can encourage more flowers for the fall and winter bloom cycle.
✂️ Pruning
• Prune regularly to control growth if using as a hedge; cut back every 3–4 years in early spring.
• Remove frost-damaged branches and thin dense areas to enhance airflow.
• Remove suckers promptly to prevent unwanted spreading unless propagation is desired.
🍂 Mulching
• Apply mulch to protect roots from frost in colder areas; use thick layers in USDA zone 8.
• Helps retain moisture while keeping soil well-drained during dry spells.
🐛 Pest & Disease Control
• Attracts aphids and scale insects, especially during new growth periods.
• Spider mites and whiteflies may affect indoor plants; treat with insecticidal soap.
• Regular pruning and monitoring prevent pest buildup.
🌱 Support for Young Plants
• Propagate easily through suckers or softwood cuttings.
• For cuttings: clip 5-inch softwood stems, scrape bark, dip in rooting hormone, and plant in a moist potting mix.
• Roots form in 2–14 weeks, ready for transplanting.
🍎 Harvesting
• Grown mainly for ornamental flowers, not harvesting; flowers bloom from fall to spring attracting birds and pollinators.
• Collect seeds from dried pods to propagate in the next season.
🍃 Thinning
• Thin dense growth to prevent overcrowding and maintain airflow.
• Remove damaged or weak branches to promote healthy growth and bloom production.
❄️ Winter Protection
• Hardy in zones 9–11; protect in cooler zones with mulch or by moving container plants indoors.
• Bring pots indoors before frost and prune frost-damaged branches in spring.

Garden Shoppy reserves the right to revise or update shipping charges and policies at any time without prior notice.
