Blackie Sweet Potato Vine

Ipomoea batatas

"The Sweet Potato Vine Blackie, `Ipomoea batatas,' is a Proven Winners selection. This plant has a trailing habit and features dark reddish purple leaves that are shaped like the footprint of a bird. This ornamental plant will be able to provide color and interest like no other. Grown for their distinctive foliage and vigorous growth habit, they look wonderful planted near plants with lighter foliage. Ornamental sweet potato vines can be used as a ground cover, or trailing out of hanging baskets and pots. In zones ten and eleven, they can also be grown as a perennial. They will grow best when allowed full sunlight and a relatively warm temperature."
