Trumpet
Vine
Campsis
|
|
Description:
Trumpet Vines will quickly climb to 30' or more when given adequate support! The
brilliant trumpet-shaped flowers of orange or red bloom in summer. Training is easy
but regular pinching and pruning is necessary to become established. This plant is
also difficult to get rid of and will climb up to nearby trees and houses. We
suggest cutting it to the ground each spring before new growth emerges. Note: Be careful when pruning because some people react
to the foliage with skin inflammation. (All or parts of this plant are poisonous)
Pollen causes some allergy problems for some people.
