| Botanical Name | Cestrum x cultum 'Orange Zest' |
| Description | A powerhouse bloomer for the Gulf Coast, 'Orange Zest' offers a nearly year-round display of vibrant orange flowers. It is highly adaptable to various Houston soil types, provided they do not hold standing water. While it can tolerate lighter clay, ensure the planting site is well-draining to prevent root issues during our heavy rain cycles. |
| Exposure | Full Sun to Partial Shade; best flowering occurs in Full Sun. |
| Height x Width | 4-6 feet Tall x 3-4 feet Wide |
| Water | Moderate; drought tolerant once established, but blooms best with consistent moisture. |
| Zones | 8-11; may die back to the ground in a hard freeze but usually returns from the roots in Houston. |
| Fertilization | Use a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring and again in mid-summer. |
| Pruning | Prune lightly throughout the season to maintain shape or cut back hard in late winter to encourage fresh growth. |
| Deer Resistance | High |
