Planting: Dig a hole twice the width and the same depth as the root ball. Place the plant in the hole, making sure the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil. Backfill the hole with soil, and gently firm it down.

Pruning: Prune Tecoma capensis in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crowded branches, and shape the shrub as desired.
