For new plantings
1. Dig a hole one and a half times wider than the plant's container
2. Place plant in hole, keeping the top of the root ball ground level
3. Back fill with dirt
4. Water thoroughly and then mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds
New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering.
Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.
Care Instructions
Campsis plants are relatively low-maintenance, but there are some important care considerations. Make sure they’re in full sun and well-draining soil, and water them once a week during the summer, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Fertilize the plant lightly with a balanced fertilizer in spring and late summer. Prune the plant during late winter to shape and promote more blooms, and protect it from frost during cold winter months.
