Our Best Yellow Flowering Trees for Your Yard

 

Tipu Tree with Yellow FlowersTipu (Tipuana tipu)

One of the best shade trees you can plant is also one that can produce a coat of golden blooms in the spring. This showy tree attracts butterflies and features feathery, bright bluish-green foliage that can enhance the look of any landscape. Plant a Tipu tree wherever a high canopy is desired. Kick back and relax under the shade coverage and enjoy the vibrant bloom. A useful tree for a wide range of landscape designs!

 

 

 

 

Museum Palo Verde with Yellow Flowers

Palo Verde (Cercidium-parkinsonia hybrid and Cercidium floridum)

We have the two incredible Palo Verde varieties that are known for transforming yards with their beautiful color and form. Both the Museum Palo Verde and the Blue Palo Verde are drought tolerant once established. This characteristic makes them perfect options when you want to add color to waterwise or desert landscapes. 

The Museum Palo Verde is a hybrid version of the classic Palo Verde, with the bonus of having thornless trunks. This hybrid version looks like a piece of art too, thanks to their vibrant yellow flower display and bright green trunks!

The Blue Palo Verde can bloom fragrant yellow flowers and can attract butterflies to your garden. Its interesting sculptural trunks make it an excellent candidate for night lighting and add a "WOW" factor. 

 

 

Thevitia Tree with Yellow FlowersThevetia (Thevetia peruviana)

Also known as Yellow Oleander, this beauty thrives in the heat. In the spring, fragrant, large yellow blooms can appear, where they can add some much-needed color to arid landscapes. They feature attractive green foliage that helps to lend a tropical effect wherever they are planted. Specimen sized trees can establish a large umbrella-shaped canopy that can provide shade. Enjoy the bloom and the sight of hummingbirds, also enjoying the fragrant flower!

 

 

 

Sweet Acacia with Yellow FlowersSweet Acacia (Acacia smallii)

These drought-tolerant trees can produce fragrant golden-yellow puffball flowers that hold onto the tree for a long time. Their dark green foliage adds a beautiful contrast with the bright flowers. Plant a couple of specimen sized trees and enjoy the cooling shade they can provide. This versatile tree is an excellent choice for a wide range of landscape styles. We also like to use them as a focal landscape tree that can attract all the right attention.

 

 

 

Palo Brea Tree with Yellow FlowersPalo Brea (Cercidium praecox)

These are very showy trees that can create curb appeal. Springtime sees the arrival of bright yellow blooms that lend an attractive contract with its green foliage and apple-green bark. They feature graceful, interwoven branches that create an impressive sculptural quality. We like to plant them in front yards and light them up with lighting for the added wow factor!
