crossvine/bignonia cleanup tip

18 years ago

Hi. Just sharing a tip I discovered last year for deadheading a crossvine/bignonia. My vine - Tangerine Beauty - loses all its flowers at pretty much the same time. It's still young but it had at least 500 flowers, so imagine 500 dried up little brown tubes all at once! Not good. After I realized how ridiculous it was to handpick all of them, I swept a broom from top to bottom over the whole thing; it worked great. A duster would also work. Anyway, maybe someone can use this idea.

I've attached a picture of my vine in its babyhood. Maureen
