Cape Honeysuckle is a vibrant and fast-growing evergreen shrub that can be trained as a vine, prized for its spectacular display of fiery orange-red flowers during the cooler months. When many gardens are quiet, it bursts into bloom from fall through spring, producing dense clusters of tubular, trumpet-shaped flowers that are a magnet for hummingbirds and butterflies. With its glossy, dark green foliage and vigorous, sprawling habit, it is an excellent choice for creating a colorful, informal hedge, a sprawling ground cover on slopes, or a dazzling floral screen when supported on a trellis or fence.

• Brilliant Cool-Season Color: Blooms profusely from autumn through spring with vibrant clusters of orange-red to scarlet, trumpet-shaped flowers, providing essential nectar when few other plants are in bloom.

• Top Hummingbird Attractor: A premier plant for attracting and sustaining hummingbird populations throughout the winter and early spring.

• Versatile Growth Habit: Naturally grows as a large, sprawling shrub but can be easily trained as a climber on supports or pruned into an informal hedge or screen.

• Fast-Growing & Evergreen: Provides quick coverage and year-round interest with its dense, glossy green foliage. Can reach 15-20 ft. as a vine or 6-8 ft. as a shrub.

• Heat & Drought Tolerant: Once established, it is highly tolerant of heat, full sun, and periods of drought, making it ideal for water-wise landscapes in warm climates.
