Crossvine Bignonia Capreolata 1 Gal

Dressed To Thrill crossvine (Bignonia capreolata) is colorful, extremely floriferous, and amazingly adaptable! This selection of our North American native crossvine transforms fences, walls, and trellises into a wall of flowers, climbing structures by tendrils. Orange-red trumpet-shaped flowers with bright yellow eyes enliven landscapes from spring through summer and provide a welcome food source for hummingbirds. Native from Ohio down to Texas, this semi-evergreen vine is adaptable to most any soil and exhibits excellent heat and drought tolerance. 

Dressed to Thrill crossvine can make a welcome alternative to trumpet vine (Campsis radicans), especially in cooler climates where it will be less rambunctious but still attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Climbs by tendrils so will require a sturdy support with texture and/or smaller pieces so that it can succesfully ascend the structure.
