Dalechampia aristolochiifolia - Purple Wings


 Dalechampia aristolochiifolia - Purple Wings (Dalechampia aristolochiifolia - Purple Wings)

This vine grows so quickly I can barely keep up with it. It blooms constantly throughout the year. This is the reason why I haven’t removed it. Photo taken December 6, 2024.

Love it! I had one, first in the ground which it hated, and then in a pot, but a particularly severe monsoonal wet season was one challenge too many for the poor thing.

This one has been growing on my shade structure in the front yard since 2010. It never stops growing! Ugh! But, I do love the flowers!

I’m surprised it didn’t do well there. I know it’s native to the tropical rainforest of Central America. Although, my plant doesn’t get any water, except for when we receive rain.
