This sun loving plant plant blooms round the year. This plant is famous for its climbing capabilities. Many multi storey buildings use it as a climber. It can climb even upto height of 30 metres. Some gardeners use this plant as creeper on fences. Regular pruning induces more branches and flowering. Blooming reduces during extreme cold. It’s a long life plant. This plant is almost maintenance free.
Watering & Sunlight: We should water it whenever soil has become fully dry. Drainage in pot is necessary by making sufficient holes in bottom. During extreme cold, give very less water and try to protect from cold. We can also grow this plant in balcony with direct sunlight of 04 hours. This plant can grow in diffused sunlight also, but blooming will reduce.
Soil: Proper drainage in pot is necessary. We should prepare the potting mix in such way so that water should reach bottom of pot within 15-25 seconds. This is the basic quality of fast draining soil. Such soil also contributes to make the potting mix more aerated. To make the ideal potting mix for this plant, 20 % drainage media (river sand/ Leca/ Perlite/ Pumice or rice husk- use any one of them) in potting mix should be available. In rest of the potting mix, we should mix vermi-compost (25 %), coco peat (25 %) and garden soil (30%).
Uses: The plant is also used as single plant in pot.
