Tangerine Beauty

Bignonia capreolata
Easy to grow vine that provides abundant tangerine blooms over a long season. Attaches itself to most surfaces by tendrils. Grows in just about any condition. Semi-evergreen to evergreen, colorful solution for a fence or arbor with afternoon shade. Although this east Texas native is slow to establish, ‘Tangerine Beauty’ sports brighter, showier flowers than other cultivars and will reward your patience with loads of orange blooms. Flowers bloom on old wood, so prune this vine immediately only after blooms fade.
