Trumpet Vine

Campsis x tagliabuana, or the Trumpet Vine, is an easy to grow plant that blooms with fiery red, orange or vellow plants depending on the sub-species you choose. It can be a little invasive, so will require plenty of pruning to keep it in check. The flowers appear during the summer months, and are unsurprisingly trumpet shaped. A great choice for growing up a wall or trellis, and it enjoys a full sunlight position to best thrive.
