Antigonon Leptopus
Also known as: Coral Vine, Queen’s Wreath, Mexican Creeper, Confederate Vine, Chain Of Love, Corallita

Here is a tuberous-rooted, tendril-climbing tropical vine that rapidly grows to 40’ in its native habitat of Mexico. Clusters of bursting coral-pink flowers appear sometimes in the spring but generally in late summer to fall. Coarse, wavy, arrowhead shaped leaves grow to 4” long. It's a good choice for climbing unsightly walls, fences, and garden structures.

Generally pest and disease free. Cut back in late winter or early spring. Can become invasive in warm areas. Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerates drought, but appreciates consistent moisture during the growing season. Evergreen in USDA Zones 9-11. Deciduous in Zone 8, but roots generally survive. Grow as an annual vine or in containers in colder regions.
