Campsis tagliabuana (Trumpet Vine)
Color Name: Indian Summer
A deciduous climbing vine that is easy to grow and is an American native. Attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies and bees. Trumpet Vine would be a great addition to any butterfly garden. Will cling to garden structures and will grow rampantly in full sun or partial shade. Easy to grow requires, average soil. Prune back to a few buds in the early spring, as flower buds form on new growth. An exciting flower color of salmon-orange with reddish throat. Disease free. More compact than other varieties. Indian Summer trumpet vine is a strong-growing and abundant-flowering hybrid deciduous climbing vine. It has light and medium green compound leaves and flowers at a younger age than other trumpet vines. At the tip of the stem, a panicle (or branched cluster) of 6-12 tubular or trumpet-shaped yellowish orange flowers open, attracting hummingbirds. The inside of the flowers are orange-red. This selection grows to about half the size of other trumpet vines.
Growing Tips: Grow Indian Summer trumpet vine in any average garden soil that is moist and well-drained. The trumpet vine is quite tolerant of poor and drier soils and in restricted root spaces. Full sun ensures the finest flowering displays. Grow it on any sturdy arbor or tall trellis up the side of a small building. Its smaller size makes it better suited for chain-link fences or simple pre-fabricated aluminum and wood arbors and gazebos.
