Proven Winners plug grown in premium soil and fertilizer in our 4.33³ Modern Miracles grower pot.
Great foliage component plant in combinations; excellent heat tolerance and good vigor. This variety features unique crown shaped, many fingered foliage unlike anything you've seen in sweet potato vine. The plants are more mounded, less trailing with overlapping leaves which lends a unique and fun flavor to this new introduction. It can sub for a Boston fern basket that likes more sun and needs less water. In other words it's easier to care for.
