Digging Dog Nursery Trees and Vines

Campsis (Trumpet Creeper)
at Digging Dog

Including Campsis radicans varieties Flava and Red Sunset

Campsis

Trumpet Creeper

Robust, rich and rampant, this eastern American native provides a living screen festooned each summer with richly colored blossoms that resemble flaring trumpets. A beacon to hummingbirds, Campsis are tolerant of almost any conditions, but flourish in sunny spots with moist, well drained soil. To encourage a lavish show and control its shape, prune hard in wintertime.

Medium Band.

Campsis radicans Flava

The pendulous clusters of 3 in. long, richly yellow trumpets, each extruding prominent curved stamens, shine against lustrous, dark green compound leaves defined by seven to eleven coarsely toothed leaflets. When the weather cools, foliage mellows to yellow-green and blooms give way to podlike capsules of winged seeds.

Blooms July–September.

Size: 25'–35' high x 0" & spreading; hardy to zone 4.

Campsis radicans ‘Red Sunset’ full sun

With unbridled abandon, flaming red and openly flared, pendant tubes deliver an extravagant display almost all summer long. A glossed, soothing curtain of richly green, compound leaves showcases the fiery-hued flowers. Easily ascending by self-clinging aerial roots, ‘Red Sunset’ casts its composed and fervid accents upon fences, pergolas or walls.

Blooms July–September.

Size: 25'–35' high x 0" & spreading; hardy to zone 4.

Customer Comment:

“I just visited Digging Dog Nursery over the weekend, and was very impressed, both by their plants and their beautifully landscaped surroundings. They have a wide range of plants (many which you don't see elsewhere) and everything was healthy, vigorous and picture perfect. The word which comes to mind is "cherished." I bought a few of these beauties and they are blooming already!”
