The listing, Rubber Vine Hummingbird Attractant Purple Allamanda 15 Seeds Plus a bonus has ended.
Very beautiful and lush plant and hummingbird and butterfly attractant. Sixth picture there is a seed pod I have to pick, look closely it is brown.
In the photo on it's side of the tree formation there is a Hummingbird, he was feeding while I took pictures.
The large tree growth is the mother vine she climbed a wire and perched on top of light pole and formed a tree, covered with blossoms! This has grown up a pole in my yard and made a tree. This plant hasn't spread elsewhere as I pick off the seeds pods. Plant is 9 yrs old and has been cut down three times and frozen down one winter
Planted near a concrete pad or cement berm they grow well alkaline soil is the trick.
They love to climb and with training you can turn them into trees. Or they would also do well on a fence.
They like a warm climate! They will withstand a short freeze and can be cut down to the stump and will grow back.
This is the Purple Allamanda You get 15 seeds
Collect the seed pods when they have dried before they open is best way to keep from spreading and going wild.
Cryptostegia grandiflora, commonly known as rubber vine, is a woody-perennial vine that is native to south-west Madagascar.
In Africa the vine is still tapped for latex to make rubber bands and patch tires, balls, and shoes.
These can be invasive so growers should take care not to allow to spread. Collect all pods from the vine when they have dried and before they open. Dried pods are viable for seed collection. Also pods can be used in arts and crafts!
