Planting & Care Instructions

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: Give this vine full sun, meaning at least 6 hours of direct light daily, to ensure a spectacular floral display. While it can survive in partial shade, you will likely see vigorous leafy growth with significantly fewer red trumpet blooms.
  • Soil: It thrives in average, well-draining soil and is adaptable to various soil types once established. If your ground is heavy clay, mix in compost to improve drainage so the roots do not sit in standing water.

Watering Requirements

Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to help the extensive root system establish itself in your landscape. Once the vine is settled, it becomes quite drought-tolerant, though an occasional deep soak during extreme heat keeps the foliage from wilting.

Pruning Tips

Since this vine blooms on new wood, you should prune it back heavily in late winter or very early spring while the plant is still dormant. Don't be afraid to cut it back to a structural framework or main stem, as this controls its size and stimulates the vigorous new growth that carries the flowers.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a general-purpose, granular fertilizer in early spring just as new growth begins to emerge. Avoid using high-nitrogen fertilizers or lawn feed near the base, as these encourage aggressive green foliage at the expense of your flowers.

If you're in the mood to create a big visual feature in your landscape...there is nothing showier (or quicker) than First Editions® Atomic Red™ Trumpet Vine (Campsis radicans 'Stromboli').

Incredible clusters of dark red flower buds develop all across the top surface of the vine. These inch-long buds simply "pop" against the dark green compound foliage.

The blooms lengthen and open up to display an unforgettable red-orange hue. As the blooms age, they'll mellow to an outstanding ruby-red.

The flowers feature long throats, which make it easy for hummingbirds to grab nutritious nectar. Don't be surprised to see these jewel-toned avian friends visit your vine several times a day.

The flower power starts in mid-summer and continues through fall. Trust us...Atomic Red Trumpet Vine is not for the timid.

Even the sculptural trunk is uniquely interesting. The thick roots grow woody and gnarled below the explosion of delicate foliage.

Like Wisteria, this vigorous vine needs a strong support system. The plant climbs by attaching aerial rootlets to stone, cement, brick and wood.

For a fabulous, long-term display...order Atomic Red Trumpet Vine from our plant experts today.

This remarkable blast of color is a hummingbirds best friend. Butterflies love them, too!

You can even put them to work as a groundcover. Let these vines scramble down a sunny slope to stop erosion.

Atomic Red Trumpet Vine easily turns an eyesore into a feature. Perhaps you've "inherited" a TV antenna or old silo. Hide it behind a gorgeous flowering wall of color!

Turn a cast concrete block retaining wall into a magnificent feature. Space them every 15 feet for a quick, lush cover.

#ProPlantTips for Care

Plant your Trumpet Vine in full sun, with at least six hours of sun a day. You'll get the most blossoms with sunshine.

Well-drained soil is also important. Elevate the planting site if your soil has poor drainage.

The red-orange flowers are borne on new growth, so prune in late winter. Control for size at that time.

We recommend that you give them a medium amount of water on a regular basis. While they are hardy, keeping them hydrated will protect your investment in dry weather.

Order Atomic Red Trumpet Vine ASAP! This red-hot plant will sell out quickly.
