Trumpet Vine is a large, fast-growing climbing vine with pinnate glossy dark green leaves that are a duller green underneath and turn yellow in fall. It's trumpet-shaped flowers come in bright shades of orange and reds and bloom on new growth, attracting bees and butterflies from summer until frost. Blooms best in full sun and well-drained soil.
