Tecoma

or Cape Honeysuckle
I just love these plants. So tough and water wise. The birds and the bees love them. And they flower just about all the time. I have 3 different colours in my garden. This one was my least favourite colour as the orange and red seemed much more vibrant, but this is the one that has become a favourite - it is always covered in bunches of flowers like this. And the birds seem to prefer this one over the others
We have lots of Tecoma hedges growing in NZ especially around older houses, but I have never seen this colour before.. lovely.

@julzmaioro Thank you. Yes tecoma makes fantastic hedges. And the more vigorously it is trimmed and pruned, the thicker it becomes and the more it flowers

@narayani I am sure you will find you have them. Your climate is similar I think, and they are such hardy and beautiful plants

These are gorgeous, I love the vibrant color. We do have honeysuckle but it’s not nearly as showy as this variety.
