This Black Eyed Susan vine is very quick to bloom, offers a super-long season of color, and has a classic color pattern that complements everything in the garden! The blooms reach about 1 1/2 inches in diameter when open wide. The petals are a mix of white, yellow and orange, surrounding a bold black eye on most blooms. The blooms are profuse smothering the vine over a long bloom season clear up until frost.
Thunbergia vines grows best in full sun. They needs average, well-drained soil. Plant seedlings 3 inches away from supports. Netting or strings make good trellis material. Solid fencing or large posts will need trellis material for the vine to climb. Space plants 8 - 12 inches apart. Pinch the tips of young Black-Eyed Susan plants to encourage branching.
