Happy Mystery Monday! What did we find in the tall grass?
Last week, we highlighted trumpet creeper (Campsis radicans)! Trumpet creeper is a vigorous native vine that has tubular orange and scarlet blooms in July. It attracts hummingbirds and produces bean-like seed pods in the fall. This vine requires some maintenance in order to keep it in check, but it can be a good solution for stabilizing eroding areas.
