Product description
Campsis Flava, also commonly known as the Yellow Trumpet Vine, is a deciduous, climbing garden shrub. Glossy, dark green leaves grow on climbing vines which will cling to surfaces with aerial rootlets and showy, trumpet-shaped, golden yellow flowers bloom on the ends of branches for a long period throughout summer.
This garden plant is perfect for growing on walls, trellises, or fences, where the free flowering vines will create a showstopping summer display of blooms. Since these plants can spread to a relatively large size, pruning in late winter or early spring is encouraged.
Please Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold. Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Campsis is a fast-growing plant, but pruning in late winter helps maintain the desired size and shape.
How to Water
Water young plants regularly, particularly during dry spells. Drought resistant once established.
How to Plant
Campsis is a vigorous climbing plant, so choose a sheltered spot next to a wall, fence or trellis for the plant to climb. Plant in full sun in moderately fertile, moist but well-draining soil. Dig a hole slightly wider than the root ball and add some well-rotted organic matter. Position the plant in the hole and backfill the soil to the same level it came to in the nursery pot. Firm the soil down gently and water in well.
