Mexican Blood Trumpet

This vigorous, evergreen climber produces an abundance of tubular bright red flowers with a slight purplish hue and a prominent yellow throat from summer through to autumn . The blooms contrast against the lush, leathery  leaves. It is a very attractive climber and can be used to cover pergolas, car ports, open patios, and garden arches. They also cover fences and boundary walls extremely efficiently provided that they are trained and supported continuously.
