Hi, I am fairly new to Dave's. and loving it every minute. I bought seeds today for Cypress red climer vine, any comments in reagards to it before I put it in my garden, I would like to grow it in a pot, just in case it is invasive. Any sugestions would be helpful! A long Islander, Clemen
cypress vine (red climber)
Clemen..it's about the easiest of any to grow.. I have the red and the white.. I start them in with anything...and they will grow up and thrugh anything to use it for a trellis..they grow well growing through the brugmansias..evergreens..roses... their foliage is so feathery..I don't worry about it shading a plant... even though it's coverd with them.. some will come back in the spring from the fallen seeds.. but mostly I start them in pots/trays.. and then put them out a bit later....II've a tray of them I put in a few days ago.. I'd forgot them... till now.. Gordon
Gordon, it seems that the next time I have a question, I'll dmail you! LOL, You know everything and are GREAT! I will go to the store and find the white one! I hope they bloom al summer. CLemen
...not to mention you'll have more then enough seeds from the parent plant for next year...and to share with anyone interested..LOL
I guess they can be pretty invasive then with all of those seeds!
Worst enemy: spider mites! Watch for them!
It is starting to sound like a scary movie!
I don't see mine popping back up yet...last year was my first year w/it. Might be too cold just yet....
So we'll se what happens to yours! I started mine indoors a couple of days ago and waiting patiently 'till they start to grow! Clem
