Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Senecio bryoniifolius (Bryony-leaved Flowering Ivy) is an evergreen, trailing succulent plant native to the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. Makes an exceptional hanging basket specimen! It features plump, green, roughly heart-shaped and toothed leaves with a nice sheen and a mottled, silver-veined surface. The leaf undersides are a gorgeous magenta color. The trailing stems can grow to be exceptionally long, and can even be trained to climb. Provide a well-drained soil, evenly moist soil. Avoid overwatering and reflective heat. Ideal in warm climate landscapes and container gardens, but is especially happy indoors in a hanging basket with ample light. Protect from frost!
