national PLANT NETWORK's grower approved selections take the guesswork out of gardening. Corkscrew Vine is a dramatic tropical climber prized for its fragrant, spirally coiled blooms in white, lilac‑purple and swirling tones that appear from mid‑summer through fall. It thrives in USDA zones 9 through 12 in full sun to partial shade with well‑drained soil and adapts well once established. In colder zones it can be grown in a container and overwintered indoors in a bright window or greenhouse with minimal watering during dormancy. Use it as a climbing feature on a trellis, arbor or fence, or as a container vine where its unique flower habit and vertical growth deliver a memorable display of texture and color.
