Rhigozum is derived from the Greek rhigios meaning stiff and ozos, a branch, a reference to the plant’s rigid branches. This is a fairly large family that is mostly concentrated in tropical America. Plants in this family often bear beautiful flowers, and include the jacaranda tree which is an alien invader that comes from Brazil, the showy African flame tree, Spathodea campanulata which comes from tropical Africa and the shrub, Cape honeysuckle, Tecoma (= Tecomaria) capensis, which is indigenous to this country.
Rhigozum zambesiacum commonly known as Zambezi Gold is a South African indigenous species from the KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo and Mpumalanga Provinces. Rhigozum zambesiacum grows into a shrub or small tree. From spring to summer it bears frilly yellow bignonia-like flowers. This is an extremely showy species.
