A Resource Guide to Trumpet Trees
Contributor
As a companion to Matt Ritter’s article about trumpet trees (Handroanthus chrysotrichus and H. impetiginosus, formerly Tabebuia spp.), which was featured in the April 2011 issue of Pacific Horticulture, we offer the following list of nurseries that occasionally offer trumpet trees.
