Butterfly vine

Post by DEB789 »

I have a butterfly vine growing in my fence line. Its about 18 inches high. It started blooming in May, but now it stoped blooming. Will it bloom again? What should i do to make it bloom again? ZONE 8B.

Oh, they're tropical or subtropical plants. I guess most of us who post here aren't familiar with them.

Stigmaphyllon ciliatum

This plant receives its common name from the butterfly-like pods that appear on the plant as the flowers go to seed.
