Tecoma
Tecoma is a genus of 10[3] species of shrubs or small trees in the trumpet vine family, Bignoniaceae. Twelve species are from the Americas, while the other two species are African. The American species range from the extreme southern United States through Central America and the Antilles south through Andean South America to northern Argentina. The generic name is derived from the Nahuatl word tecomaxochitl, which was applied by the indigenous peoples of Mexico to plants with tubular flowers.[4] Trumpetbush is a common name for plants in this genus.[5]

gollark: Yes.
gollark: <@!738361430763372703> OPINE.
gollark: Minoteaur 8 is supposed to be reworked in various ways, but upon needing to implement that I unfortunately realized that I have no clue how that should work.
gollark: https://minoteaur.osmarks.net/features is kind of out of date and for the wrong version but you know.
gollark: Obviously it needs some amount of extra things, I'm just not sure exactly what they are or how to implement them neatly.
