This climbing flowering plant originates from the West Indies to northern Brazil and produces flowers full of elegance, earning it the English name Queen's Wreath.
Its leaves are rough like sandpaper, giving it the nickname Sandpaper Vine.
It blooms sporadically, but primarily in spring and autumn, producing racemes about 30cm long at the tips of its vines.
The flowers are deep blue-purple, with the paler blue-purple parts at the back being the sepals.

Location: Full sun
Watering: Water thoroughly when the surface of the soil in the pot dries out.
Fertilizer: Apply slow-release fertilizer about once every two months during the growing season from May to October.
Winter care: Bring indoors to protect from frost.
