The Red Trumpet Vine, also known as Campsis radicans, is a vigorous, deciduous climber prized for its bold, trumpet-shaped red to reddish-orange flowers that bloom throughout summer and into early fall. These striking blooms attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies, making it a lively addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. Its fast-growing nature and ability to climb by aerial rootlets make it ideal for covering fences, trellises, arbors, and walls, adding vertical interest and vibrant color to the landscape.
Red Trumpet Vine thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, though it can tolerate partial shade and a variety of soil types. It is hardy in USDA Zones 4 through 9, making it suitable for a wide range of climates. While it is low-maintenance once established, regular pruning is recommended to control its vigorous growth and keep it from spreading too aggressively. This robust vine is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to create a dramatic floral display with minimal care, especially in sunny areas where bold color and pollinator activity are welcome.
