Description
20-30' tall x 6-8' wide. Flamenco is a native vine that boasts rich, orange/red flowers.
As many southern gardeners know, the famous trumpet creeper vine is a native of the southeastern states and the Gulf Coast. In its native range, it often scrambles up tall trees, and creates a blooming column, with stems reaching out from the tree trunk filled with beautiful bloom. However, in frost free areas, it can become rampant, and must be controlled.
In colder zones, it remains hardy, and grows only as far as it can in any season. The further south it is planted, the further it grows! This beautiful vine can be a great solution for fences or as a screen for unsightly areas. It is a long-lasting bloomer – it will bloom from early summer until frost.
