Black-eyed Susan Vines

Black-eyed Susan Vines (also known as Thunbergia alata) are fast-growing, trailing or twining, heavy blooming annual vines with triangular leaves. Flowers are tubular, 2.5-5cm (1-2 in.) across and are marked with a contrasting dark eye. Vines bloom from from summer until frost.

Whether planted in the ground or containers, trellises and strings are frequently used to train Black-eyed Susan Vines. Plants can also be used as highly ornamental seasonal ground covers. For an informal look allow Black-eyed Susan Vines to ramble and scramble over garden walls and shrubs. Enjoy their riotous color close up, when you plant the vines in hanging baskets.
