Yellow Trumpet Creeper

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.

Customer Comment:

“Surfing the web for a special plant, I chanced on Digging Dog Nursery. I thought that any nursery that could create an Egyptian Gothic out of Anubis must have some pretty cool things going for it. I was right, and my first order was a pleasure. Well packed, healthy plants and extremely appealing people on the other side of the screen.”
