Trumpet Vine, Trumpet Creeper, Cow Itch Vine
The bignonias arrived with broken branches and were very small. One of the two almost certainly won't come back. It's a piece of dead wood. I'm not satisfied at all.

Description
This pair of large trumpet vines brings together two excellent varieties which are vigorous and floriferous throughout summer: Campsis 'Madame Galen' and Campsis grandiflora. These are large climbing plants with deciduous, decorative foliage that are adorned with large panicles of trumpet-shaped flowers in warm, vibrant shades of orange and red. Their long stems cling to any support available to them, like ivy, whether it be a pergola, a wall, an old tree, or a building. Just like wisterias, trumpet creepers can easily be trained into a tree shape through pruning.
This duo is composed of:
1 x Campsis x tagliabuana 'Madame Galen': an old French variety that has proven itself in all regions. This variety can reach 10m high if not pruned. It flowers quite quickly, producing ample clusters of large trumpets in a beautiful, warm and bright orange, tinged with red. Its finely cut deciduous foliage is a very bright light green. It turns yellow in autumn before falling.
1 x Campsis grandiflora: a superb Chinese species, slightly less vigorous than the previous one (7m high). Its flowering lasts at least 3 months, in the form of large clusters bearing wide, flared trumpets in a very vibrant orange-red, evolving towards a more apricot tone. This trumpet creeper is not the most cold-resistant, but its growth is very rapid. With its heavy flowering, the plant will need to be trained and protected from the wind. The climbing roots are sometimes too sparse on the branches to ensure the proper anchoring of this trumpet creeper to its support.
This pair of Large Trumpet Creepers can be used anywhere, to cover a wall sheltered from cold winds, a pergola, an unsightly building, a fence, an old wall or a large tree. The plants are easy to grow in any well-drained soil, fairly drought-resistant, and tolerate short frosts down to -15°C, in well-drained soil. If the soil in your garden is too heavy, incorporate coarse sand or gravel before planting. Plant them separately or combine them with a spacing of 1.50m between each plant. If you have space, mix your trumpet creepers with other climbing plants with staggered flowering or decorative foliage. Plant Bank's roses ('Lutea', 'Alba Plena') that bloom in spring, Akebia quinata with purple flowers, Actinidia kolomikta which has variegated tricoloured foliage in spring, or the Chinese wisteria 'Alba' which produces beautiful white, fragrant clusters in spring.

Planting and care
The trumpet vine is not very fussy about the nature of the soil, but it dislikes heavy, compact, poorly drained soils where moisture can stagnate. If the soil in your garden is too heavy, incorporate coarse sand or gravel before planting. It grows in any well-drained garden soil, even slightly chalky. It prefers a sunny exposure, except in the south where it will thrive in partial shade. Plant it along a well-exposed wall or against a tree, guiding its first steps on a stake. Water regularly during the first summers, or in case of prolonged drought. The plant can tolerate occasional dry periods once established, especially if it is planted in deep soil. In the first few years, protect its crown from severe frost with a thick mulch.
Pruning is not essential. If you want to, prune in late winter or early spring. In August-September, remove faded branches as well as the oldest shoots recognisable by their cracked bark.
The trumpet vine can be trained as a tree, just like a wisteria. Select the most beautiful stem to train on a sturdy stake, driven deeply into the ground. Then remove the secondary branches up to the desired height to form a trunk. Prune every year by removing stems that detract from the overall appearance.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
