The scientific name Campsis derives from the Greek word 'kampe' which means 'bent' and which refers to the branches that bend under the weight of the profusion of flowers. In the symbolism of plants the trumpet vine represents 'a fresh start', referring to the beginning of autumn. The flowers are used to prepare a tea to relieve menstrual cramps, as well as an emmenaogue to promote menstruation. The decoction made from the roots is taken as a tea to promote urination, as well as an antidote for scorpion and snake venoms, although this has not been proven scientifically.
