A "must have" plant for southern growers.
Gloriosa Rothschildiana is a gorgeous crimson red with bright yellow edges. Its 5 inch long slender leaves attach themselves to anything they can with tendrils coming from the tips of the leaves. The vine grows fast in warm weather, blooms, then dies after a few months. After a bit, another vine may come up from the tuberous root. Drought tolerant and pest free. Dig and store in colder climes.
