Vigorous, self-clinging, evergreen vine that holds securely to any surface via aerial rootlets. Leaves are heart-shaped, forming an interesting pattern. Covers large areas quickly. Excellent way to add character to a garden wall. Very common creeper in tropical countries as it can cover a wall very quickly. Outdoor plants can grow to 15" or more. Leaves are simple and small. Very pronounced venation on underside of leaf. Two distinct leaf types: juvenile foliage is very small and tend to hug wall, or trellis that it is growing on. Mature foliage is larger to 2 or 3 inches long and the stem get coarse and starts sticking out from rest of vine. Hairy pear-shaped fruits (to 2.5” long) may appear on outdoor plants throughout the year.

This type of creeping vine is impressive. Excellent to stop grafitti, to hide ugly walls, to
create a green scape. But it requires pruning and
care, otherwise it will certainly look messy, ugly.
Be SURE before you plant anything like this. If you change minds, the whole area will have to be
repaired and painted since the roots attaches
strongly to the walls the paint will come off
when you pull it.
