Orange Flowering Vines
Below you will find a list of Vines from our database that are orange flowering. If you click on any of the photos, you will see a Virtual Plant Tag that may contain photos, plant descriptions, usage suggestions and a link to where you can buy that plant.
The vines can be grown on trellises, fences and pergolas, around patios and decks, under trees, and directly on walls. Most of these vines grow well with average soil moisture and partial shade, though some can take full shade or full sun giving the home gardener more options for use in the landscape.
Some of the orange flowering vines are native plants which frequently helps the plant be more insect resistant and salt tolerant and have natural disease resistance. Many of these vines are successfully used in stressful urban settings. The native vines with orange flowers that add so much for landscaping include: Trumpetcreeper, also known as Hummingbird Vine and Trumpet Vine and botanically as Campsis radicans; Trumpet Honeysuckle or Coral Honeysuckle, also known by its botanical name Lonicera sempervirens; Yellow Honeysuckle or Lonicera flava, which can bloom orange, yellow or orange-yellow; and Quartervine, also known as Crossvine and Bignonia capreolata. Quartervine has several outstanding cultivars that add dramatic flowering and extend the bloom time: 'Jekyll' that has yellow and orange combined and 'Tangerine Beauty' with ruby-tangerine flowers in copious amounts.
Enjoying your orange flowered vines longer can be accomplished by planting several different types that blossom and bloom at different times. This way you add to your landscape color palette.
Several striking hybrids have been in the Horticultural trade long enough to be thought of as Old Favorites. Trumpet Vine Hybrid 'Madame Galen' (Campsis x tagliabuana 'Madame Galen') has spectacular blooms, is winter hardy while also prospering in the summer heat of the Southern States. Several others clones are available that widen the bloom color options. Tellman or RedGold Honeysuckle (Lonicera x tellmanniana) has flowers that are the showiest of the vining honeysuckles. The blossoms combine yellow, orange and red that is lovely even from a distance.
As you look at the thumbnail images of the vines that flower orange in this list, you will see that many also have lovely fall or Autumn foliage colors, or beautiful fruits or berries. In addition, many of these vines attract butterflies and birds, particularly Hummingbirds to your home garden. Adding orange flowered vines to your landscaping can add more uses since these plants are sometimes also used as groundcovers and broadleaf evergreen shrubs.
