Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.
Tecoma is a genus of flowering shrubs and small trees native to tropical and subtropical regions, including India. The Tecoma Pune variety is prized for its lush, dark green foliage and vibrant trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in clusters. These flowers come in warm shades of orange and yellow, adding a splash of colour to gardens from late spring through autumn. As a hardy perennial, Tecoma is well-suited to India's climate and is often used in landscaping for hedges, borders, or as standalone specimen plants. Its ability to attract pollinators makes it not just beautiful but also beneficial for the local ecosystem.
Light & Placement
Tecoma plants thrive in bright, direct sunlight and require at least 4-5 hours of sun daily to produce abundant flowers. They are best suited for outdoor locations such as gardens, balconies, or patios that receive full morning sun. While they can tolerate partial shade, reduced light may result in fewer blooms. Ensure the plant is placed in an area with good air circulation to prevent fungal issues. Avoid placing Tecoma in shaded indoor areas, as it is an outdoor plant that needs ample sunlight to stay healthy and vibrant.
Watering & Soil
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the growing season. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, reducing frequency during the cooler months. Tecoma prefers well-drained soil rich in organic matter. An ideal mix includes garden soil, cocopeat, vermicompost, and a small amount of neem khali for added nutrients. Proper drainage is crucial to prevent root rot, so ensure the pot has drainage holes. Mulching around the base can help retain moisture in the soil while keeping the roots cool.
Pruning & Maintenance
Regular pruning encourages Tecoma to grow bushier and produce more flowers. Trim back spent blooms and leggy branches after flowering to maintain a neat shape and stimulate new growth. Light pruning can be done every few weeks to keep the plant compact. Tecoma is relatively low-maintenance but benefits from occasional feeding. Use a balanced fertilizer rich in nitrogen and phosphorus, or add dry banana peels as a natural nitrogen source. Vermicompost can be applied every two weeks to support healthy growth and abundant flowering.
