Campsis radicans, commonly called trumpet vine or trumpet creeper, is native to the southeastern United States. It is a vigorous, deciduous climbing vine that can reach 30–40 ft by attaching itself to surfaces with aerial rootlets, thriving in full sun to partial shade and tolerating a wide range of soils. Its rapid growth and ability to naturalize have led to its cultivation in many regions for ornamental purposes, though in some climates it can spread aggressively and is considered invasive. The showy flowers are tubular and trumpet-shaped, measuring about 2–3.5 in long, with a flared mouth of five rounded lobes and a throat that transitions from deep orange to a reddish hue toward the outer petals. They are borne in terminal clusters and appear from early summer to early autumn, often in abundance, providing a bold floral display. Photographed in Florida.
