The flamboyant flowering of Campsis radicans made it inescapable to even the least botanically-minded of the first English colonists in Virginia ; consequently the plant quickly made its way to England, early in the 17th century, though its botanical parentage, as a hardy member of a mostly subtropical group, made its naming problematic: according to John Parkinson, the Virginia settlers were at first calling it a jasmine or a honeysuckle, and then a bellflower ; he classed it an Apocynum ( dogbane ).
