Variegated Chalice Vine Cups of Gold Rare Flowering Vine Tropical Live Plant Coconut Scented Yellow Bloom Starter Size 4 Inch Pot

Variegated Chalice Vine (Solandra maxima variegata) is a unique and unusual semi-tropical vine-like shrub with a large, growing, loose, spreading habit, producing long, arching, vine-like runners, and huge, cup-shaped, coconut-scented flowers. (hence the common name 'Chalice').

Buds begin to appear in the mid to late spring. Blooms on old growth, so avoid pruning in late Fall, and protect from freezing back.

This Plant is attractive and interesting even when not in flower, with striking green and cream variegated leaves and bright, purple bronze new growth.

Care: When mature, plant in fertile, well-draining soil or potting media in a full sun to lightly shaded area. Water as needed to maintain consistent soil moisture, but avoid overwatering. Overly saturated plants will become spotted, weak, thin, and fail to flower as expected. Feed a good quality, slow-release, bloom-boosting fertilizer with the initial planting and annually in spring thereafter. Prune after flowering to control size, shape, and remove seed pods.

Indoor Growing: This tropical vine grows large, requires the full spectrum of light 4 to 6 hours daily, high humidity, and warm temperatures with at least 10*F day/night differential, so it is not well suited for the average indoor growing space.

Condition: This product is one (1) young, starter-sized plant intended for a gardener to grow to its mature size. You may expect a starter-size plant to be well-rooted, have a root zone of approximately 4 inches in diameter, be a minimum of about 6 to 8 inches tall, and have no blooms or buds on arrival. It may be shipped with or without a pot, as appropriate.

Plants are guaranteed to arrive in healthy, viable condition. This warranty is contingent upon the Seller receiving prompt notification of any issues or concerns with the plant\'s condition or appearance.

This notification must be received within 24 hours of delivery and include in-focus photos that clearly show the plant issue, shipping box, and address label. No other additional, extended, or long-term warranty is expressed or implied.
