Podranea ricasoliana

Pink Trumpet Vine is a large, sprawling, woody vine that clambers without tendrils up through tree fences from which the stems arch gracefully outward but without support is good as a groundcover. The evergreen pinnate glossy green leaves have 7 to 9 leaflets with pointed tips. The flowers begin to appear in clusters at the branch tips in mid to late summer and are present until the first frost. The lightly fragrant large light pink bell-shaped flowers have maroon stripes from the petal base leading down into a cream and sometimes followed by long narrow beanlike fruit. Best in full sun with occasional water. Although they are sub-tropical, these plants form a large tuberous root from which the vine easily regenerates if stems freeze to the ground. Easy to grow. Plants shipped are shrub form.
