Cardinal Climber Vine

Cardinal Climber

SEEDS - Botanical Interests - Annual. Blooms summer to fall. 6'-20' vine. Full sun. This fast-growing vine has stunning dainty 2 red tubular flowers with a white/yellow throat and lacy fern-like foliage. Pair it with Morning Glories or Scarlet Runner Beans for an explosion of color! Grows best in lean, moist soil. (Do not plant in rich soil or add fertilizer which may encourage vigorous foliage but no blooms.) Though flowers may start to appear in early to mid-summer, they may not occur until later in summer, but then will bloom prolifically until frost. Please note that all parts of this plant are poisonous, including the seeds. When to plant outside: Spring, after last average day of frost or up until early summer when temperatures warm up (do not plant too early). When to start inside: Sow 4-6 weeks before planting outside (late spring, early summer). Roots do not like to be disturbed, so transplant with extreme care. Special Germination Instructions: Soak seeds in water for 12-24 hours or nick with sandpaper before planting. We cannot ship this variety to Arizona as per state regulations. Please do not order if your shipping address is in this state. Bot: Ipomea multifida

Hyacinth Bean Vine Ruby Moon

Hyacinth

SEEDS - Botanical Interests - Blooms in summer. 6' to 20' vine. Full sun. Purple stems with dark green leaves and purple to white flower clusters, followed by eye-catching velvety purple bean pods. Makes an attractive fast growing screen. This exotic tropical looking vine can be grown up arbors, trellises, fences, in hanging baskets, or as a groundcover. It is used as an important forage crop in the tropics. The immature bean pods are edible, but probably not as good tasting as many other garden beans. The purple color will turn green when cooked. Mature bean seeds may be eaten, but they must be boiled and drained at least twice to discard the toxic cyanogenic glucosides. We do not recommend eating them. The common name is misleading, as Hyacinth Beans are not true beans. But, like beans, they are a member of the pea family. The Hyacinth Bean Vine requires well-drained soil to thrive and is much more drought tolerant than other bean varieties. OUTDOORS: Sow in spring after average last day of frost. (Recommended) INDOORS: Sow 6-8 weeks before last spring frost. Difficult to transplant - use extreme care (such as pulp pots) to avoid disturbing roots. SPECIAL GERMINATION INSTRUCTIONS: Soak seeds in water for 24 hours before planting. Bot: Dolichos lablab
