Merremia Tuberosa Hawaiian Woodrose
$8.25
Native to Asia, and cultivated in Hawaii, Merremia is an evergreen perennial vine that is hardy to 25 F. Vivid yellow trumpet-shaped blooms begin in early spring and continue until fall, with flowering year round in warmer climates. Following the bloom, a smooth round capsule forms surrounded by 5 petal-like sepals giving the appearance of a wooden rose which is often used by florists for arrangements. Slender vines can grow 20 feet or more and sport lovely 5-7 lobed blue-green leaves in full sun to part shade. For wintering over, can be grown indoors with sufficient lighting, or tubers can be stored and replanted in spring. A very rewarding and easy vine to grow, plant Candy-Pop morning glories and Red Cypress vine along with this variety for a spectacular show of continuous color. Pkt.
