Product Description

Campsis radicans Flava, commonly known as Trumpet Vine, is a vigorous deciduous climber prized for its clusters of golden-yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom profusely from summer into fall. This native cultivar grows rapidly, often reaching 20 to 30 feet, and uses aerial rootlets to cling to walls, fences, and trellises. It thrives in full sun and tolerates a wide range of soil conditions. While its bold color and attraction to hummingbirds make it a standout, it can spread aggressively, so careful site selection and maintenance are recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best growing conditions for Yellow Trumpet Vine?

Yellow Trumpet Vine thrives in full sun and prefers average to rich, well-drained soil, but it’s highly adaptable to poor, dry, or sandy soils as well. Once established, it’s very drought-tolerant and can handle tough urban or roadside conditions. Full sun encourages the best flowering.

How large does Yellow Trumpet Vine grow?

Campsis radicans ‘Flava’ is a vigorous, woody climbing vine that can grow 30–40 feet or more with support. It climbs by aerial rootlets, allowing it to adhere to trellises, arbors, fences, and even masonry—so be sure to provide a strong, permanent structure for it to grow on.

When does Yellow Trumpet Vine bloom?

Yellow Trumpet Vine blooms from midsummer through early fall (typically July to September). It produces clusters of bright yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers that are bold and tropical-looking, offering standout late-season color.

Is Yellow Trumpet Vine good for pollinators and wildlife?

Absolutely. Campsis radicans ‘Flava’ is a magnet for hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. The tubular flowers are especially attractive to hummingbirds, making it a top choice for wildlife-friendly vertical plantings.

Is Yellow Trumpet Vine aggressive?

Yes—like the species, ‘Flava’ is very vigorous and can spread aggressively through suckers and self-seeding. It’s best used in large spaces or naturalized settings, and should be regularly pruned to control spread. Avoid planting near delicate structures or garden beds unless heavily managed.
