I've posted about wire vine before and I still think it's sooooo pretty! Last year I only planted one plant.
And, it pretty much just sat there and did nothing all summer. Bad location and soil.
So, I brought it in last fall planted in this old tobacco can.
And, it pretty much just sat there all winter and did nothing.
Someone suggested I fertilize it. ?!?!?!?!
I had seriously not even thought of that. Sheesh!
I fertilized!
Now, it's finally starting to grow and I'm going to try and keep this one as a house plant.
I have two more planted outside that are growing too! They are in the same location as in the post I linked earlier so should do well.
It's romantic even in a tobacco tin!
I usually have an ironstone saucer under it for the drainage, but took it out for pictures.

my green thumb abandoned me- I have killed nearly everything this Spring from neglect...sigh...only so many hours in a day and only so much of 110 heat I can stand....
ReplyDeleteI should go back to houseplants maybe..you give me hope
sweet! I swear by miracle grow for everything :)
ReplyDeleteI have a similar plant.......... need to take a photo. I bought it at Roundtop this past time and the vendor called it Angel Vine. I've never taken it out of the pot I bought it in, but set it inside a pretty stone pot... sitting on my counter..... would probably do better outside. Maybe I should feed it? !!! great idea! Love yours!
ReplyDeleteOkay....... I googled it. They ARE the same plant and they are native to New Zealand! We can ask Carole about it!!!!
