Yellow Trumpet Vine

About this plant

Campsis radicans 'Flava', commonly known as Yellow Trumpet Vine, is a spectacular vining plant celebrated for its profusion of bright, sunshine-yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers. These cheerful blossoms emerge in summer and continue into fall, creating a brilliant display that is sure to draw attention and invite hummingbirds to your garden. This fast-growing vine is ideal for covering fences, arbors, pergolas, or unsightly structures, providing a lush, green curtain adorned with dazzling floral accents. Its woody stems cling readily to surfaces, requiring minimal support once established, and it can even be trained to grow as a sprawling groundcover for erosion control. Hardy and adaptable, the Yellow Trumpet Vine thrives in a range of conditions, making it a wonderful choice for gardeners seeking high impact with relatively low maintenance. Its vigorous growth ensures a rapid establishment and a showy performance year after year.

Care & maintenance

Requires strong support for climbing. Prune in late winter or early spring to control size and encourage bushier growth and more flowers. Can spread aggressively, so consider its placement carefully. Fertilize lightly in spring if growth is lagging.
