About Crossvine
# Crossvine
If you want to attract hummingbirds and bees right to your garden, crossvine is a wonderful native choice. This beautiful perennial vine puts on a show with its reddish-orange and yellow trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in spring and summer. Birds love visiting the blooms, and pollinators can't resist them. The vine grows year-round and provides lovely coverage on fences, trellises, or arbors. It's a real showstopper that brings life and movement to any space.
Crossvine is pretty easy to care for once it's established. Plant it where it gets plenty of sunlight and let it climb on a sturdy support. It's a vigorous grower, so give it something strong to grab onto. Water regularly at first, then it becomes more independent. You'll find it's a tough plant that rewards you with blooms for many seasons. It's one of those natives that does the work for you.
