From May through to September you will see exotic red-orange trumpet blooms. Ideal for training up a small trellis or garden wall, this hardy deciduous shrub provides a backdrop of mid-green foliage. Drought resistant once established.Although Campsis are fully hardy, they will perform better when grown against a warm, sunny wall for added protection and better flowering performance. Plant into moist, but well-drained soil in a sunny position. Alternatively, grow Campsis plants in patio containers using soil based compost such as John Innes No.2, and add extra grit for drainage. Once Trumpet Vine plants are established in the border, they will prove to be drought resistant. After planting your Campsis, cut back all stems to 15cm (6") from the ground, to stimulate new growth. Train the strongest new shoots, and remove weaker shoots. After 2 or 3 years, a framework will be established, and you should prune back sideshoots to within 2 or 3 shoots of the main stems. Prune in late winter.Product Specifications: Hardy ShrubPosition: climberHeight: Up to 152cm (59in) when fully establishedSpread: Up to 152cm (59in) when fully establishedSupplied as Campsis x Taglibuana ‘Trumpet Fire’ (Trumpet Vine) 2 litre pot x 2Delivered with growing and care instructionsImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
