IPOMEA
Ipomea is a fast-growing, ornamental vine commonly used for landscaping, ground cover, and hanging baskets. With its graceful, trailing growth habit and striking trumpet-shaped flowers, it adds a touch of elegance to gardens and outdoor spaces. The flowers bloom in vibrant shades with contrasting white or yellow throats, while its lush green foliage enhances the plant’s decorative appeal.
Planting & Care
- Sunlight: Ipomea thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade. More sunlight encourages abundant flowering.
- Soil: Prefers well-draining, fertile soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH.
- Water: While it is drought-tolerant, it grows best when the soil is kept consistently moist but not waterlogged.
- Fertilizer: Generally, it doesn’t require heavy feeding. A balanced, slow-release fertilizer can be applied if the soil is nutrient-deficient.
- Temperature: Grows best in warm, humid climates. Cooler temperatures may slow its growth.
