Description
Strongylodon macrobotrys or Jade Vine
A rare flower form that puts on a stunning display! . This robust climber produces large chains of turquoise flowers, over a foot in length, from late spring through early summer. Rare and much sought after, this Philippine native requires room to grow. Its vining trunk needs to reach 3/4 ���½ in diameter before blooming begins and is considered one of the vanishing treasures of the Phillippine rain forest.The cyan or jade colour of the flowers is fairly rare in the plant world,..
