The fastest vine to cover a fence - everyone asks about it

💙 The fastest vine to cover a fence - everyone asks about it
  • 🔵 If you need a beautiful vine to cover your fence quickly - plant Thunbergia laurifolia, Thunbergia grandiflora - Blue Sky vine, Blue Trumpet Vine, Scrambling sky flower.
  • 🔵 This vigorous tropical climber explodes with 3-inch trumpet-shaped blossoms in a shade of blue so vivid, it looks unreal. In just one season, it can cover a fence, trellis, or arbor with lush green foliage and long cascading chains of flowers.
  • 🔵 Once established, it blooms heavily from fall through spring, creating a waterfall of sky blue that feels cool and soothing even in the heat. It's not just a pretty face either - its fast growth makes it ideal for quickly creating privacy, shade, or a living screen.
  • 🔵 Thrives in heat and humidity, low-maintenance once established
  • 🔵 Dramatic focal point, pollinator magnet, and conversation piece! And if blue isn't your color, the rare white version, Thunbergia grandiflora Alba, offers the same performance in pure ivory tones.

What is better - Lychee or Longan?

Longan - Euphoria longana - tastes a lot like Lychee

🍊What is better - Lychee or Longan?
  • 🟠 What is more productive than a lychee tree and just as delicious? The Longan tree - Euphoria longana.
  • 🟠 This fast-growing beauty is a breeze to care for and starts fruiting early. Longan produces clusters of sweet, juicy fruit with crisp skin and fragrant white flesh that tastes a lot like lychee - some even say better!
  • 🟠 It's tougher too: more wind-resistant, less fussy about soil and water, and fruits more regularly than its famous cousin. You can keep it compact with pruning or grow it in a container.
  • 🟠 If you want a tropical fruit tree thats reliable, prolific, and packed with flavor, Longan is the one to grow!
