Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Clusters of large scarlet trumpet-flowers (and probably hummers, too!) will cover this vigorous 30-40' vine in late summer followed by golden fall color. S/M-D
As above but large brilliant red flowers with an orange center in August and September. Very vigorous like all trumpet vines but with sock-it-to me red blooms, it's destined to become a favorite. Takes 2-3 years to establish and is then a very robust grower.
