A vigorous hybrid Trumpet Creeper, award-winning Campsis x agliabuana 'Indian Summer' or 'Kudian' is a self-clinging woody climber with large, trumpet-shaped flowers, 3 in. long (8 cm), flushed salmon-yellow to rich orange-red deep in the throat. Appearing throughout the summer and early fall, these magnificent tubular flowers are borne in large, often pendant clusters at the ends of the branches and provide a long-lasting and spectacular floral display. Hummingbirds love them and never fail visiting them. The blooms are followed by attractive bean-like seedpods. The lush foliage of pinnate (with up to 15 small leaflets), glossy dark green leaves, with coarsely serrated edges, is deciduous.
'Indian Summer' is a charming hybrid between Campsis radicans (American Trumpet Vine) and Campsis grandiflora (Chinese Trumpet Vine). It is a more compact and manageable Trumpet vine which is reportedly less invasive than the species.
