The monoecious flowers, borne on terminal panicle inflorescences, are pink in colour, tubular in shape and appear from mid-spring to mid-autumn. The Pink Trumpet Vine is a relatively easy-to-grow plant. It can withstand high temperatures and light frost, as well as drought. Its growth is favoured when it is placed in sunny areas, with normal moisture levels, and fertile - not clayey - soils with excellent drainage. The Pink Trumpet Vine is utilized as a climbing plant for creating a fence, as well as in pergolas or trellises. It is also planted as specimen, or in group plantings and compositions. Its good tolerance to salt sprays also allows it to be grown in seaside gardens.
