Yellow Trumpet Creeper

The Yellow Trumpet Creeper, Campsis radicans \'Flava\', is a rapid growing, clinging vine produces yellow trumpet shaped flowers in the summer months that attract hummingbirds. Trumpet Creepers flower best in a full sun location and it is a tough vine for hot and dry sites. The invasive nature of this plant makes it hard to get rid of but also very hardy. The abundant sprays of trumpet-shaped yellow flowers cover this deciduous vine for an extra long bloom season. The rapid growth makes training easy and therefore it is excellent for covering fences or arbors. The \'Flava\' cultivar is considered by many to be the superior of the species.
