The trumpet vine, often called trumpet creeper, loves lean soil as well as it drains well. This beautiful plant can grow up to 40-feet tall when it has a structure to climb on. It uses suckers produced by underground runners to attach itself to almost any surface. A single vine can spread to be more than 10-feet wide.

Trumpet Vines Captivating Leaves

This plant puts on beautiful leaves that are shiny, dark green on top and dull green underneath. Each leaf that can be up to 15-inches long produces seven-to-ten leaflets that have serrated edges. The leaves turn yellow in the autumn.

Where To Plant Trumpet Vines

Plant it in the full sun so that it produces flowers. The scarlet or orange flowers have a trumpet-shape, and they can be up to 3-inches long. Blooms typically appear in the early summer and last until fall. If this plant does not get enough sun, it will still thrive, but it will not produce flowers. After the flowers fade, then the plant produces bean-like seedpods that can be up to 5-inches long. If left on the plant, these seedpods will eventually split open, releasing the seeds inside. If they land in the right spot, then you can have another plant.

Trumpet Vines Uses

If left without a structure to climb, then the trumpet vine will use its suckers to spread across the ground. Using this vine as a groundcover can be very useful if you need to stop erosion. When left to crawl across the ground, the plant can also be very useful in camouflaging unsightly debris, such as a rock pile.

No way any one could kill

I loved the look of this plant. It is beautiful, fragrant and easy to care for UNTIL it takes over! There was no way to control the growth. We pruned it, manicured it, etc. She kept growing out of control. We lovely named her Audrey from Little Shop of Horrors until she got so strong she broke through our 4 x4 trellis. We then tried every thing to stop her. Even tried digging out the root ball, burned it. She is still growing. The only way we are getting rid of Audrey is to move.
