Common name: Flame vine, Flaming trumpet, Golden shower trumpet, Orange Bignonia
Flaming trumpet is a vigorous, fast-growing, evergreen woody vine that blooms in winter and spring with spectacular reddish-orange flowers. The center leaflet is modified into a coiled, three-parted tendril. Flame vine branches profusely and climbs by clinging with its tendrils. The tubular flowers are about 3 in long and borne in clusters of 15-20 at the tips of branches. The flower clusters may hang down under the weight of their own beauty.
Botanical name: Pyrostegia venusta Family: Bignoniaceae (Jacaranda family)
Photographed in Secunderabad. Some of the independent houses here have this vine and they look so beautiful in full bloom.
