    This rare vine produces wide-mouthed flowers in the tangy yellow and red colors, reminiscent of the savory spices of its homeland in India. It blooms in clusters from winter through summer with pendulous chains from which emerge wave after wave of eye-catching flowers.

    Wow! What a beautiful vine! Thunbergia mysorensis has glossy green lance shaped leaves on stems that twine up any support. Then, the plant drops long (up to 2 feet) hanging clusters of stunning yellow and red flowers. Very brilliant and exotic. Excellent grown overhead! Prune as desired. Mysore, India.
