Description
Tricolor ornamental sweet potato vine is grown for trailing green-and-white variegated foliage, making it useful for hanging baskets, planters, and bed edges.
Growing in Alabama and the Southeast
In Alabama, plant after frost in sun to part shade; afternoon shade can reduce leaf scorch in exposed containers. Use fertile, well-drained soil and water consistently during hot weather, especially in hanging baskets. Pinch long stems to keep plants full. This is primarily a foliage ornamental and should be treated as frost-tender; take cuttings indoors before a freeze if you want to overwinter it.
