Highly impressed with the cardinal vines! The hummingbirds love them! They grew very tall and beautiful! I will be buying again next Spring for me, and friends and family!

Minor in the ground and growing and the hummingbirds last year would buzz around in the little tiny trumpet flowers and so I wanted to make sure I had these for them again this year. I live in zone 8B and the plant grows and doesn't really Bloom until around September.

We planted these this spring and they’re coming up great not tall enough to climb yet so we’ll see how they do

What you see is an arbor about to sprout morning glories from seed. The cardinal climbers planted alongside then were a joke. They did eventually arrive but were peculiarly anemic and rather small, somewhat 1/4 the size of a morning glory. Extremely disappointed. I was looking for a climbing flower that was deer-resistant but these "Cardinal Climbers" are extremely tiny and hide behind their leaf foliage: in short, I would not recommend them at all. Scraggly and reticent, they are tiny, tiny flowers that produce more foliage than flower. The red hanging plant in the arbor is artificial, but the rest are real. If you have a small space that is deer-proof then you might try Climbing Cardinal, but I found it a scrabbly little wanna-be flower with no pop or pizazz. It's more weed than flower in my opinion, so I will continue to search for deer-resistant climbing flowers. One star. Major disappointment.

It's way too early to give a full review as the "frost free" date here is May 1. I have planted the seeds in pots so that I have decent size plants to put outside in another 6 weeks. They took awhile to pop thru the soil. I should have done what I did in years past - nick the seeds with a knife before planting. If you have never purchased Cardinal Vines before, you will be amazed at how they grow and vine out. Best part, they aren't "sticky" like some vines are. Very easy to remove at the end of the season - with no stain left on your fence post, etc.

I used to have success growing these when I lived in Florida and I was looking for something free-flowering that would grow here in central TX alkaline soils. Since the 'soil' in the Keys had to be alkaline as well, I decided to give these a try. The seeds had an excellent germination rate, but those I've got in potting soil are much larger (and blooming) than those in the ground. So they don't appear to like the soil here, but we will see if they catch up. Its also clear the deer will eat them. This variety is a very deep red, quite beautiful and the hummers like them.

The vine grow profusely, but it took two months before a bloom appeared. The hummers love it.
