How to care for Campsis × tagliabueana Madame Galen:
To avoid dry conditions, and to ensure good soil contact around the rootball, we advise planting climbers at least 30cm (12in), and preferably 45-60cm (18-24in) away from the base of a wall or fence. An even larger distance should be maintained when planting climbers beside an existing tree or shrub.
Plant Campsis in a sunny, sheltered spot, ideally against a south or west-facing wall for warmth and protection from hard frosts. Provide strong support, such as a trellis or wall, as this vigorous climber can grow large.
Use well-draining, moderately fertile soil, and water regularly during the first growing season; once established, it’s relatively drought-tolerant. Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and encourage flowering. In colder areas, protect young plants from frost until they’re well-established.

Please note:
This climber is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
