Distictis buccinatoria is a fast-growing, evergreen woody vine that features large red-orange flowers with yellow throats, blooming spring to fall. It is ideal for privacy screens, hedges, and covering large walls, fences, or arbors. Thrives in hot, sunny conditions but tolerates partial shade. It requires regular water to establish but becomes drought-tolerant once mature. Can grow in a variety of soils, including sandy, loamy, and even clay, provided they do not remain waterlogged; needs excellent drainage. Cold hardy to 25°F. We still use the older name that is in widespread use, Distictis. The current name is now Amphilophium buccinatorium.
