2849 - Short And Sweet

2014-08-06

I have no idea how the tree or shrub is called, that grows such pretty red trumpet blossoms, but while they’re sweet, their life is very short. Besides, they are a challenge for any monitor’s gamut 🙂

The Song of the Day is “Short And Sweet” by David Gilmore. Hear it on YouTube.

Apparently you do know the name. In Canada we call this plant the trumpet vine. Aptly named obviously. Ü

In Austria we call them "Trompetenwinde", "Trompetenblume" oder "Jasmintrompete", lat.: Campsis radicans // tagliabuana // grandiflora., two of them grow in my garden.
