The large tubular pink flowers on the Pink trumpet vine resemble the bloom of a Petunia. Native to South Africa it has a wonderful tropical look.
This evergreen vine grows quickly and doesn't mind the Arizona sun. This is not a twining vine, rather it grows outward like a bush and needs to be trimmed back because it quickly can overtake a space.
Once mature it can reach heights of 20 feet. I planted this out our side window and the pink trumpet blooms are stunning in the spring and winter months. After a year in the ground, this vine produces dozens and dozens of blooms.
