Tabebuia ochracea,[1][2] known as corteza amarillia in Spanish and ipê-amarelo in Portuguese, is a timber tree native to South America, Cerrado and Pantanal vegetation in Brazil . It is very similar, closely related to, and often confused with the Golden Trumpet Tree, Tabebuia chrysotricha. It is a seasonal flowering tree, blossoming only during spring (September). During this time, all leaves fall and only flowers remain in the crown.

There are three subspecies:

  • Tabebuia ochracea ssp. heterotricha
  • Tabebuia ochracea ssp. neochrysantha
  • Tabebuia ochracea ssp. ochracea
