Crossvine is a high-climbing, semi-evergreen native vine, and 'Tangerine Beauty' is the famous tangerine-orange selection, opening a spring blaze of bright orange, trumpet-shaped flowers and blooming again, more lightly, through the season. Climbing high by tendrils and adhesive holdfasts, the crossvine shows to best effect on a fence, a wall, or a trellis in sun or part shade, where the early trumpets draw hummingbirds in numbers.

Crossvine was virtually unavailable from nurseries when Woodlanders began offering the plant in the early 1980s. 'Tangerine Beauty' was introduced by Hines Nursery, quite possibly selected from stock supplied by Woodlanders, and is now widely grown, one of the most popular flowering vines for the South.

Give 'Tangerine Beauty' a sturdy fence, wall, pergola, or large arbor and room to climb, where the spring flush of orange trumpets feeds hummingbirds and the semi-evergreen leaves screen year round. Like all crossvines, the plant suckers from the roots and can spread, so site where the roaming can be managed. Native to the southeastern United States: fast, tough, and reliable.

Design Notes

A fast native climber for a sturdy fence, wall, pergola, or large arbor, where the spring blaze of orange trumpets feeds hummingbirds and the semi-evergreen leaves screen much of the year. The crossvine suckers from the roots and can spread, so site where the roaming can be managed. One of the most popular and reliable flowering vines for the South.
