A true gem among vines, April 22, 2006

"I love this vine and grow it every year from Burpee seed. I've found it just as happy to ramble as to climb, and it will loosely twine around roses and all other standing plants. The overall effect is an extremely feathery pine with crimson flowers floating above it. These plants really must be seen in person as photos flatten the beautiful full foliage. It is never fussy, nor have I ever had a single pest problem."

"I love climbing bloomers and had used morning glories on my fence in the past. But the Japanese Beetles feast on them making their leaves a mess and living on a lake I wont use pesticides! Last year I tried this cardinal vine as we call it and WOW! I nicked the seeds and soaked them then planted in the ground. Just about all my seeds sprouted and boy do they climb! Very intense red flowers that are hardier than they look. Best thing was no bug troubles! I have orderede even more seeds this year! Love it!"

Cardinal Climber, June 18, 2008
Submitted by willow from Holiday,Fl. (read all my reviews) (read all my reviews)
"I have grown this vine for years. My daughter in law brought me one single vine and I planted it beside my chain link fence. It bloomed that summer and every year after that. Because I live in Fl. it spreads it's own seeds and comes up every year thicker and more beautiful then the year before. It's like a sprinkle of lush red flowers dotting a blanket of green feathery foliage draping over my fence. It's just beautiful."

Crowns of Glory, May 22, 2008
Submitted by Fayola from Chicago, IL (read all my reviews) (read all my reviews)
"The vines enthwine to form beautiful crowns of delicate bright flowers.I planted these last year near a fence and they grew and grew with so many flowers it was a spectacular sight. I will grow them again this year. The actual plant will exceed your expectations...the pictures don't do it justice. I'm still amazed at God's beauty."
