Black-Eyed Susan Vine Spanish Eyes:
The Black Eyed Susan Vine (Spanish Eyes Blend), 'Thunbergia alata', is a vigorous vine with sunset colored, dark eyed flowers. The Spanish Eyes Blend is a very fast growing vine with a unique blend of warm colors which contrast brilliantly with the dark "Spanish" eyes. The flowers are between 1 and 2 inches wide on a 5 to 10 foot vine. They bloom reliably from early summer through late summer.The Spanish Eye Blend prefers full sun but will tolerate light shade. They like rich, moist, well drained soils. Plant them near a trellis or fence, as Black Eyed Susan climb by twining. Seed the plants after all danger of frost has passed. The Black Eyed Susan vine can be grown as a quick screen and as a colorful groundcover. They are excellent in window boxes and hanging baskets.
