    Campsis radicans, aka trumpet creeper, is an aggressive vine. Be very care when introducing an species into a country where it isn't native. An aggressive native US plant may be invasive where you are. In grows in the southern tier of US, southeast states and further north. Here are 2 articles on trumpet creeper: https://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=cara2

    The are 2 plants commonly known as trumpet vine. One, Campsis radicans, is a fast-growing large vine with medium sized flowers that are shaped like a trumpet. The other is a smaller vine with smaller flowers and is also called coral honeysuckle, Lonicera sempervirens. I think you are referring to the first vine which is more common. Here is information. Toxicity is at the bottom of the page.

    You must be talking about Campsis radicans, an aggressive vine in garden soil. I don't think there is anything you can do except prune out unwanted vines. One vine that may better suit your needs is Carolina jessamine, growable in AU zones 1-3. Here is some information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/vines/carolina-jessamine/growing-carolina-jessamine.htm

    Oh! These will flower when it is HOT. They tend to like the heat quite a bit. Also worth mentioning... These are extraordinarily invasive and attract ants. Just be careful with this plant, and know that it will become a problem if it isn't managed properly each year.

    Unfortunately, there are too many plants with the name Trumpet vine to give you any accurate information. If you could include a photo of which one you are referring to, then I could help you to figure out what you have, and when it will flower. Or if you know the scientific name for the plant that you are referring to, then this is always the best nomenclature to go by, as it will point me to the exact plant without question.

    Campsis radicans Would be the scientific name. I don’t have a photo as it isn’t foliage season here in NH yet!
