A vigorous, fast-growing vine covered in bright orange-red trumpet blooms all summer, irresistible to hummingbirds.

Campsis radicans 'Flamenco' is a vigorous, woody clinging vine that brings vibrant color and life to any landscape. It attaches itself by aerial rootlets, requiring strong support for optimal growth. This stunning vine attracts hummingbirds with its bright, trumpet-shaped orange-red flowers and boasts a repeat blooming cycle, thriving best in full sun for maximum flowering. Drought-tolerant once established, 'Flamenco' effectively covers arbors, fences, and walls, creating a lush, green backdrop. With a remarkable growth potential of 30 feet in height and width, it’s an excellent choice for adding vertical interest and seasonal beauty to your garden throughout the summer.

Pros

  • Season-long orange-red trumpet flowers from early summer into fall
  • A hummingbird magnet; also draws bees and butterflies
  • Extremely vigorous, quickly covers fences, trellises, and arbors
  • Tolerates a wide range of soils and some drought once established

Cons

  • Highly aggressive: spreads by suckering roots and self-seeding, and can become difficult to contain
  • Needs sturdy support and heavy pruning to keep in bounds
  • Sap can cause mild skin irritation on contact

Field-Grown vs. Greenhouse-Grown Plants

Plants which are well-adapted to our local climate are most often field-grown (outside). Field-grown plants are generally cheaper and have the advantage of already somewhat acclimated to our cold winters, but that means they’re not artificially far along in the spring and tend to bloom at the normal time in our area.

Spring annuals and tender perennials are typically grown in Greenhouses so they can be ready and luxurious exactly when customers want them. Some perennials are also “forced” into early bloom in greenhouses. In May, there can be a very big difference between field-grown and greenhouse-grown plants of the same type. The latter typically look good right away (so they’re a great choice where that’s important), but we typically pay a premium for it.

No Pricing or Availability Right Now

We order from a rotating cast of the best nurseries in the Great Lakes region. It looks like we've offered this plant in the past, but the nurseries we're working with this week don't appear to have it in stock at the moment.

Our goal is to bring as many plants together under "one roof" as possible, so we'll try hard to make it available again in the future!
