This vine is from Laos. It will grow a foot or more per month so be brave with the pruning shears. This picture is just a few days after we brought it home. It’s been a week now and we have 4 vines that have about 4″ of new growth each. It has wonderful long tendrils that hang down to grasp trees so it can climb on them.
It is sitting on the floor by a north facing window, it doesn’t mind the medium level light, the room itself is quite bright. I fear if we put it in a brighter window it will take over the place.
It does mind the cold. The leaves near the window turned black. So keep this plant at 50′F or above if you can. If you leave your plant out and it dies back from the cold, warmth will often bring it back to life.
Check the soil frequently it will drop its leaves if it gets too dry and water when the top inch of soil is dry, letting the water run until it flows from the bottom of the pot.
