Trumpet vine for ID 922011 UD 002: Please help me ID… classify this trumpet flower and its vine…
Its at the entrance of a nursery in Los Angeles…
they said the vine is at least more than 40 years old. Hence the large thick stem, and bleached surface of the beautifully cracked bark… Date/Time- summer 2008 Location- Place, Altitude, GPS- sea level Habitat- Garden/ Urban/ Wild/ Type- garden grown Plant Habit- Tree/ Shrub/ Climber/ Herb- climber Height/Length- climbing over a trellis , yearly trimming… Leaves Type/ Shape/ Size- about 4 inches, ovate Inflorescence Type/ Size- small bunch Flowers Size/ Colour/ Calyx/ Bracts- 3 inches max , fused tube /trumpetlike Fruits Type/ Shape/ Size Seeds- not seed Other Information like Fragrance, Pollinator, Uses etc.- no data I guess it is crossvine, Bignonia capreolata, and not a trumpet vine. now come to look at fig 2 closely, i can see the third leaf developing into a tendril… originally did not see any tendrils… that was not correct. secondly, sorry donot have good enface flower pic… but enlarging these in fig 1… I can see the 5 petals in the peculiar.. 1, 2, 2 arrangement, not exactly a perfect round… Your observation is exact… I had photographed one in California. Yet to see it here, but being cultivated, should find it surely at some similar place. Amphilophium buccinatorium as per another thread
