Texas Mountain Laurel trees (Sophora secundiflora) are a favorite flowering tree throughout the Southwest, and it's one that is sure to add curb appeal! They are native to Texas, New Mexico, and northern Mexico, and this small tree turns heads, especially when the fragrant, early spring bloom of violet-blue flowers arrives, attracting hummingbirds and helping to make your yard the most attractive one on the block! Their smaller size makes them perfect for tight spaces, courtyards, front entryways, or on a sunny patio!
There's no doubt that the Texas Mountain Laurel tree is an ornamental beauty and it gets bonus points because it's an evergreen with a sturdy structure that can keep its leaves all year. They like to grow in a location that gets plenty of full sun exposure, and they're water-wise too, so once established they will have little to moderate watering needs. To maximize results feed this tree with our Moon Valley fertilizer before new growth begins in spring.
These trees have a slow growth rate, so if you're looking for a larger tree right now, that can be used as a windbreak, we recommend buying the largest size. Moon Valley Nurseries is the grower of the biggest and best Texas Mountain Laurel trees to ensure their quality! Consider adding companion plants such as Lantana or Heavenly Bamboo, available at our nurseries!
