Cup-and-saucer vine
The Cup and Saucer Vine is a popular annual climber capable of creating a dense green wall in just one season. It grows very quickly and is perfect for covering pergolas, fences, or wire structures where you need a bit of shade or privacy. The plant's greatest charm lies in its striking flowers, which look like bells or cups. At first, they have an understated greenish hue, but they gradually develop into deep shades of purple or creamy white. They appear on the plant from late summer until the first frosts, reliably attracting pollinators. To ensure your Cup and Saucer Vine blooms beautifully in our climate, be sure to sow it early in late winter and give it a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. At Loukykvět, we love planting them by sturdy supports where they can spread out and show off their true beauty.
