Petrea volubilis (large form)

Giant Queen’s Wreath Vine

A natural variation in the species P. volubilis displays distinctly larger flower clusters and more pronounced, robust leaves. The purple flower clusters form an impressive, elongated raceme, accented with lighter purple highlights that enhance their overall visual appeal. This variety tends to bloom in successive flushes, while the persistent sepals slowly age to an interesting greenish-pewter tone over time. It thrives best in full sun and shows a strong preference for warm, sunny climates. Native to Central America, this plant bears leaves with a unique sandpapery texture that adds notable character. It is important to protect this species from frost to maintain its growth and vigor. This form occurs naturally in its native habitat.
