Plant Features

Tricolor Ipomoea Plants offer striking green, light pink and white fan-shaped, trailing foliage that attracts attention wherever its displayed. Ipomoea are heavy feeders, so they benefit greatly from regular fertilizer feedings. They also prefer soil that does not dry out completely. When grown in containers, once the top is dry to about 1 inch, water it and check regularly during really hot weather.

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-6.8

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water regularly during the growing season, keeping soil evenly moist

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer monthly during the growing season

Pruning and Training:

  • - Provide support for vining varieties (trellises, fences, or poles)
  • - Pinch back growing tips to encourage bushier growth

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Watch for common pests like aphids, spider mites, and whiteflies

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Plants are grown for their foliage colors

Light Requirements:

  • - Can tolerate partial shade or full sun

Temperature Tolerance:

Really nice

These came very healthy and are doing great in my garden.

Something different

I was looking for sweet potato vines in lime and dark red because my local big box stores didn’t have them. I came across this one while searching and knew I had to have it! Its purple edging and almost blue leaves are gorgeous and unique. I’ll probably never go back to the traditional colors now!

Mixture

This is one of the prettiest sweet potato vines in my opinion. I plant this with purple/white verbena and purple lantana and as usual these plants never let me down.

Just what I was looking for!

Sweet potato vines

I looked everywhere locally for this sweet potato vine. After not finding it for the second year in a tow, I decided to look online and found Grow Joy. My plants arrived healthy and in a timely fashion. Now I'm the only one around with these beautiful plants and couldn't be happier. Thank you!

BeautifulTricolor Ipomoea

I ordered this plant to compliment SunPatiens Compact Deep Rose Impatiens and it looks really nice with that Impatiens. I cannot wait to see how full and long the plant becomes. Looks good hanging down.
