‘Major Wheeler’ Trumpet Honeysuckle is a native vine superstar—loved by hummingbirds, bursting with vivid color, and easy to grow. This vigorous yet non-invasive climber produces an abundance of fiery red tubular flowers from late spring through summer, with scattered blooms continuing into fall.

Unlike aggressive Japanese honeysuckle, ‘Major Wheeler’ is well-behaved and ecologically beneficial, supporting native pollinators and nesting birds. It thrives on trellises, fences, arbors, and even as a sprawling groundcover on slopes or banks.

  • Long Bloom Time: Flowers from late spring through fall

  • Wildlife Magnet: Attracts hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees

  • Low Maintenance: Disease-resistant, heat- and drought-tolerant once established
