Campsis × tagliabuana 'Summer Jazz' — Summer Jazz ™ Fire trumpet vine
Bring bold, long-lasting summer color to fences, arbors, and trellises with the Summer Jazz ™ Fire trumpet vine . This vigorous, semi-evergreen to deciduous climbing vine produces clusters of trumpet-shaped, fiery orange-red flowers from midsummer into fall, attracting hummingbirds and pollinators. Glossy, pinnate foliage provides a lush backdrop for the blooms and offers seasonal interest. Fast-growing and hardy in USDA zones 5–9, it thrives in full sun to light shade and tolerates a range of soils if well-drained. Prune annually to manage size and encourage fresh flowering wood; best trained on sturdy supports due to its robust growth and aerial rootlets. Perfect for adding dramatic vertical color and wildlife value to perennial borders, pergolas, or privacy screens.
