Hi! The Plant Files listing for this plant does not have a picture - please submit yours! Samantha

OK Samantha , I don't know what to do for that
first step where ?

Well, I've never done it myself, but I think you go to the Plant Files page: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/133825/
and scroll down to the bottom of the page. There is a box that says "Your Actions". The second action (in blue type)
is " Upload an image of this plant". Then I think it would be similar to uploading the pic onto this thread. I hope that works!! Samantha

it will bloom from seed if started 10 weeks before last frost and then moved outside I grow them in zone 5 I just love them

I am in zone 5 I grow mine as an annual starting it inside 8 weeks before last frost and putting it out two weeks after so you need like a six inch pot three seeds and something for it to climb on

mine gets to be about 5 feet tall and starts to bloom in june.

Beautiful Thunbergia, dany12! I've never seen this color before.

you can also cut it back and bring it inside for the winter it will go dormant in cool spot or will grow nice over the winter in a sunny south window

I usually just start from seed

other Thunbergia do they produce seeds , I know the Thunbergia alata, white - yellow, orange , but the blue thunbergia do they produce seeds ?

yes if you allow the bloom to fall off on its own it will make seeds looks something like morning glory seeds a round pod with three seeds if I remember right I collect my seeds in the fall so I pick the spent blooms till late summer to increase the blooming then at the end of august I stop and then collect the seeds mid october or as I see them do not open the pods put them in a sunny window and wait till they dry and crack open ok

ps you can seed me some later ok
