Me too!
My first reaction was to say Campsis, but I'm sure that that is wrong.

Is it a self clinging climber? if so Try Eccremocarpus - Chilean glory flower (treated as an annual).

Looks like a Campsis to me too.

I thought the flower to narrow and leaves wrong for Campsis Wagger?

I stand corrected you certainly proved your point Wagger.

I'm convinced too now Wagger (although I wasn't when I first posted).
It can be a problem nowadays keeping up with the hybrids.....

I just want to find out how hardy it is - whether it will survive in my cold garden. The Plant Press calls it 'fully hardy'.

I guess that there is only one way to find out.....

Thanks guys for your comments. It does self cling and with a bit of help climbs quite rapidly. I have also seen a similar tree version with yellow flowers.

I've just bought myself one Pam.
It cost me a fiver out of the bargain section at a local garden centre - reduced as it had just come through the winter outdoors and was looking a little scrappy next to the new stock. Standing about four feet tall it has plenty of fresh growth on it, so looks as if they're pretty hardy.
