This tender tropical perennial vine can easily grow to 30-40 feet in length and uses its tendrils to happily and rapidly climb up, over and upon any nearby object. Evergreen in frostfree areas, the coral vine has attractive green heart-shaped, 4" wide leaves. In summer, the vine produces large branching flower stalks (racemes) upon which masses of small, brilliant pink flowers are situated.  This is a vigorous BLOOMER and GROWER! If you have a large area that you'd like COVERED in beautiful pink blooms from mid-summer to frost, this vine is perfect for you!

Don't have that much room but love these pink blooms, no problem! It can be contained by growing in containers or with vigourous pruning.
