Featuring a leaf shape you’ll only find from Proven Winners, this unique sweet potato vine forms a full, billowing mass of dramatic black, palm-shaped leaves. Compared to trailing cultivars, Sweet Caroline Medusa™ varieties have a more mounded shape with overlapping leaves, so they look more like a Boston fern than a long vine. However, they are just as heat tolerant and vigorous, thriving across North America in containers and landscapes where they won’t need to be trimmed constantly to stay in bounds. Grows to 30″ wide by 12″ tall. Zones 11a-11b

Available as Container Liner, Plug, 105-cell, 72-cell Seedling from Proven Winners (Booth #8055)
