trumpet vine shows no sign of life

Question

My trumpet vine isn’t showing any signs it is alive. Will the new growth come from the old vines or from the bottom? The vine was planted along the fence last summer and bloomed.

Answer 1

I would give your trumpet vine some more time. It tends to leafs out on new growth later in the spring than most plants. Also, with a harsh winter and a cold spring, some plants are slow to come out of dormancy. Trumpet vines bloom on new wood so you should see new stems developing this season.
