RE: Beaumontia grandiflora - Herald's Trumpet

in #beaumontia6 years ago

Beaumontia grandiflora, commonly called Herald s Trumpet or the Easter Lily Vine. It is native of the Himalayas. This beautiful vine can reach 10 to 30 feet tall but much more sideways. It makes nice cut flowers that can last for a long time.

Magnificent white flowers appear from spring to fall. The trumpet-like flowers measure from 4 to 6 inches wide. They are composed of a unique petal and each have a pale yellow stamen in their middle. The flowers have a light sweet smell.

Beaumontia is a climbing vine that can be very vigorous. The foliage is semi-evergreen. The leaves are glossy green on the upper surface and dark green and hairy underneath. They measure more than 8 inches long. The woody trunk and branches act like wires to enable the plant to grow in height. The plant produces oblong green fruits from the end of summer to fall. After the blooming season, the plant loses its leaves
