Twining milkweed vine from the Mediterranean has handsome shiny green large leaves and clusters of waxy, green and deep burgundy-purple flowers followed by pairs of long narrow seedpods. The pods open to reveal silky threads that eventually aid in seed dispersal. Each little flower is like a small passionflower. A moderate grower that reaches 20 to 30 feet in length, it is not self-supporting, so expect to help it out a little. It is one easy plant, tolerant of many soil types: sandy, loam, clay and tolerant of most light conditions: sun to shade (best in more sun). Deciduous.

Minimum temperature: 0° F
