Dedicato all'amico Hayati Keser ( hay kes )

Il genere Bignonia comprende oltre 450 specie. Fra le più note c’è la Bignonia capreolata.
Si tratta di una specie sempreverde, particolarmente vigorosa, che cresce molto rapidamente, fino a raggiungere anche i 10 metri di altezza. In Italia cresce all'aperto nelle regioni più calde del centro e del sud del paese, mentre al nord viene coltivata nelle serre o all'aperto nelle zone dove il clima è più mite per tutto il periodo dell'anno.
Le foglie sono ovali, oblunghe e dentate, di colore verde lucido in primavera ed estate e rosse in autunno, e si sviluppano a coppie simmetricamente rispetto al ramo. E' oltretutto una pianta rampicante, che si "aggrappa" con delle ventose che si trovano al termine dei viticci ramificati delle foglie.
I fiori, di color rosso-arancio, sono raggruppati in cime peduncolate e possiedono una corolla tubulosa lunga circa 4 o 5 centimetri che termina con cinque lobi allargati.

Dedicated to my friend Hayati Keser ( hay kes )


Bignonia is a genus of flowering plants in the catalpa family, Bignoniaceae. Its genus and family were named after Jean-Paul Bignon by his protégé Joseph Pitton de Tournefort in 1694
Bignonia capreolata is a vine commonly referred to as crossvine. It is native to the central and southern United States. The vine climbs without twining but does produce tendrils. It produces long tubular flowers which are red and yellow. The leaves are dark green to almost purple and produced as opposite pairs with terminal tendrils. The vine often climbs very high, with leaves only remaining on the uppermost portion of the plant. The common name refers to the cross-shaped pith revealed when the stem is cut.

A great dedication to our friend, Hayati! For sure, hAyAti will be very glad to see this lovely work.

A lovely capture of these beautiful small flowers against a black BG! The colors are just wonderful and the way your have choosen the off-center position of the flowers, is remarkable and was for sure a great idea!

Bonsoir Vanda
I have bignonias in my garden and they are totally anarchic.Something as the head of Meduse with swarming snaky extensions.Yours, on the contrary looks very calm and peaceful in a nice and elegant composition of which you have the secret.
Bonne nuit
