Remarks

Another American native vine, evergreen in more southern climates than ours, but cold hardy here. Fragrant and attractive coral flowers in spring and early summer. Attracts birds, butterflies and hummingbirds. Pleasant glossy green leaves. Not invasive. Medium water-use.

Use in Garden

Similar to Loncera flava, anywhere where vertical interest is needed. In a habitat and pollinators garden, or southern cottage garden.

Maintenance

Trim back when needed.
