black eyed susan vine

This vigorous climbing and trailing annual vine with medium size trumpet flowers in shades of yellow, orange and bicolors and a black central eye grows extremely well in hanging baskets, in container gardens, climbing up a trellis, or sprawling across the garden making a cheerful “spiller” or “thriller” all through the growing season.

Grow in sunny areas, well-drained, amended soil. Feed with a slow release fertilizer, Osmocote® or Plant-tone®. Follow label instructions. Trim once a month if growing leggy. Excellent self-cleaning annual that is easy maintenance and repeat blooming. Mulch 2″ to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
