Sidekick™ Heart Bronze Ipomoea Plant (Sweet Potato Vine)

These were very healthy plants and are doing great in my garden. Look really nice paired with other plants.

Contrast

I love buying from Growjoy every year as the product is predictable, predictably healthy, good size for creative container planting such as this Sweet Potato Vine (and the variety!!!). Growjoy sends what they advertise. I order several hundred(s) of plants a year, packaging, timing, quality...it's all very important. I've tried so many nurseries, bulb farms, popular seed stores and hands down, Growjoy is consistently a solid 10. I mean 5. I thank the hard working staff for their gathering, packaging and shipping the wonderful plants. I made new raised beds using the cardboard from shipping boxes & paper.

Unusual color

I was excited to find this unique color of ipomoea to use in my container. I've not seen this variety in our local garden centers.
