Description
SOLANUM JASMINOIDES
POTATO VINE
Solanum jasminoides is a fast-growing evergreen vine that could be used more as an ornamental vine on garden structures. It flowers over an extended period from spring through to autumn and spot flowers at other times. Growth may have to be pruned to keep the vine trained to a particular structure because it will grow out of bound and over adjacent plants without some control.
It grows well on chainlink fences where the thin stems can be threaded among the links of the fence. It will grow to a height of 3 metres and prefers full sun or partial shade.
It likes to have well drained moisture retentive soil. Dig the hole twice the size of the pot and plant level with the existing soil level.
The Potato vine is a hardy vine that flowers well and can be pruned hard or allowed to roam if required.
ENJOY THIS GREAT VINE!
