Nursery contributed plant descriptions

"Chilean Gloryvine" produces showy tubular flowers in shades of red, orange and yellow - I offer a red-flowered form. A small to medium scale vine for scrambling through shrubs or fences (I planted mine in a bamboo), it will flower in its first year from seed. Hardier than usually presumed, to at least 15 °F. For best results, sow the seed directly on the soil where the plant is to be grown. DS.
