How to Say Blackie Ipomoea
Plant Features
Blackie Ipomoea Plants offer vigorous trailing foliage with dark, burgundy black, maple-shaped leaves. Sweet potato vines are heavy feeders, so they benefit greatly from regular fertilizer feedings! They also prefer soil that does not dry out completely. When grown in containers, once the top is dry to about 1 inch, water it and check regularly during really hot weather.

Comment: I purchased Blackie Ipomoea last year for some hanging baskets and enjoyed them so much I ordered again this year. Just as before, this year's order delivered healthy, vigorous plants that are already thriving. These Ipomoeas are great for containers. They contrast nicely with the colorful plants in the container and cascade over the edge for a lovely and dramatic effect. I'm sure I'll order again next year.

The Blackie didn't trail as long as the bright Green Marguerite, but was spectacular in its display of Red and Black, with startling new leaves of Lime Green. I rescued the pot from our North Carolina frost one day too late, but the poor thing rewarded me with adapting to a hanging pot by a bright window on my inside balcony. I... More details

Comment: These arrived in the most incredible packaging for plants I've ever seen. They were healthy & upright better than what I could find locally. No transplant shock because they were so protected from who knows what during shipping. I'm even saving the containers for later use!
