2 Live Crossvine Plants – Tangerine Beauty Trumpet Flower Vine (2–4 In Tall)
Crossvine (Bignonia capreolata) is a vigorous, semi-evergreen climbing vine native to the southeastern United States. The 'Tangerine Beauty' cultivar is prized for its abundant clusters of trumpet-shaped flowers in warm tangerine-orange with yellow throats, blooming heavily in spring and sporadically through summer. Its glossy green foliage and rapid growth make it an excellent choice for covering fences, trellises, arbors, and pergolas, while also attracting hummingbirds and pollinators.
These live crossvine plants are shipped at 2–4 inches tall, ready to establish in your garden. With their twining tendrils and clinging aerial roots, they quickly climb and can create a dense, colorful screen. Crossvine is adaptable to a range of conditions and is relatively low-maintenance once established.

Planting & Care
Choose a location with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and plant at the same depth as the nursery pot. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist during the first growing season to help the plants establish. Provide a sturdy trellis, fence, or arbor for the vines to climb.
Once established, crossvine is drought-tolerant and requires little maintenance. Prune after flowering to control size and shape, and remove any dead or damaged growth. Mulch around the base to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, but keep mulch away from the stems.
