Planting & Care

Where to Plant

Sunlight: Give this vine at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day to ensure the deep red blooms are plentiful and vibrant. While it tolerates partial shade, especially in the afternoon in hot climates, too much shade often results in leggy growth and fewer flowers.
Soil: Plant in rich, cool, and well-draining soil; the roots hate sitting in standing water. If you have heavy clay soil, mix in compost or plant in a raised mound to improve drainage, or take advantage of this plant's compact size and use a container with drainage holes.

Watering Requirements

Consistent moisture is critical during the first year to help the deep root system establish. Once settled, it is moderately drought tolerant, but you should water deeply during dry spells to prevent stress. Mulch around the base of the plant to keep the roots cool and moist, acting like a natural insulator against the hot sun.

Pruning Tips

Since the source indicates a late winter pruning time, treat this as a plant that blooms best on new growth. In late winter or very early spring, before new leaves unfurl, cut all stems back to a pair of strong, healthy buds about 6 to 12 inches above the ground. This encourages vigorous branching from the base, keeping the plant bushy and preventing the "bare legs" look common in older vines.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a granular rose or tomato fertilizer in early spring just as you see new green growth beginning to emerge. Avoid fertilizers high in nitrogen late in the growing season, as this pushes soft leafy growth that is susceptible to winter damage and reduces flower production.
