Botanical nameTrumpet vine

Campsis radicans ‘Indian Summer’, or trumpet vine ‘Indian Summer’, is a vigorous and highly floriferous ornamental climbing plant, appreciated for its abundant and prolonged summer flowering. It produces large, bright orange to golden-orange trumpet-shaped flowers, rich in nectar, which stand out strongly against its dense dark green deciduous foliage. Thanks to its powerful adventitious roots, it firmly clings to walls, pergolas, fences, and robust structures, quickly creating a lush green screen. Highly attractive to pollinating insects and hummingbirds, it brings constant activity to the garden during the summer. Well-suited to Quebec's climatic conditions, ‘Indian Summer’ stands out for its robustness, rapid growth, and high tolerance to well-drained soils, making it an excellent choice for vertical arrangements in full sun.
