Container planted, 6+ hours full sun, watered it daily. The vine took off beautifully, climbing a trellis in the container. So much fun to watch these dainty, cheerful flowers bloom all summer. I would plant this sunny vine again and again.

I use to have vine in Az. I planted it under our cotton woods trees along a chain link fence for extra shade from our hot summer months. It came back every year.

I purchased hanging baskets of these and have thoroughly enjoyed them all summer. Just beautiful flowers all over and the vines climbed up their hangers so much I lowered them on chains so they would keep vining. The results have been outstanding. My whole family has lived these baskets. I will definitely get them again for next year. Just beautiful!

One plant completely covered 5 feet of fence! It's never out of bloom and comes back year after year here.
