Product Description
This colourful and exotic looking new trumpet-vine is the perfect compact climber for your patio this summer. Many other campsis varieties produce flowers at up to 3m tall so only your neighbours enjoy the tropical flora - but “Indian Summer” will erupt into flower at just over half a metre tall – the perfect variety for smaller gardens or patio planting!
Bearing the usual tubular trumpet-shaped flowers of the campsis but in a gorgeous soft tangerine shade, each and every flower really stands out against its backdrop of dense, glossy green foliage. What’s best is that it will be alive with a profusion of flowers late in the summer and into the autumn when other flowers around have faded.
Compact in growth, reaching 3m high maximum with no trimming or maintaining, “Indian Summer” is an ideal choice for adding height to smaller gardens or to patio and terraced areas where it can be grown in pots with some trellis for support, or up an archway or obelisk. It will add height and colour, elevating displays!
Alternatively, it is relative self-adhesive and can be planted straight into beds and borders next to walls and fences where it will happily scramble its way up without any help to make a beautiful feature of bland structures and supports. No need to worry about interference from roots either as they are not strong enough to damage walls, pathways or patios.
Fully winter hardy, highly disease-resistant and easy to look after with a little trimming and pruning, Campsis “Indian Summer” ticks all the boxes!
