Yellow Trumpet Vine
Campsis radicans 'Flava'
- Yellow Trumpet Vine is a large, vigorous deciduous climber with striking deep yellow trumpet shaped flowers which are up to 8cm long
- Extremely free flowering from June to August
- RHS Award of Garden Merit winner + Plants for Pollinators designated plant - highly beneficial to early spring pollinators
- Low maintenance - this plant is pest and disease resistant and needs no feeding or pruning
- Please Note: Our climbers are pruned back each winter, and some during the summer, so you may find at certain times of year they do not cover the whole 90cm cane. This is intentional to ensure the best growth when you plant out
