VARIEGATED GOLDEN CHALICE VINE – Solandra maxima variegata 125 mm pot

Description

SOLANDRA MAXIMA VARIEGATA

                                                                                             VARIEGATED GOLDEN CHALICE VINE

The Solandra maxima variegata is a member of the Solanaceae family and is a native of Mexico, Central America and Northern South America.
It can grow up to around 10 metres if allowed to climber on trees, shrubs or trellises. I have successfully kept my plant as a shrub of around 1.5 metres.
The vine is evergreen and the flowers are spectacular and are shaped like a chalice opening to around 150mm and each petal has purplish ridges on the inside. The flowers open yellow and fade to a rich golden colour. The flowers are fragrant with a coconut fragrance and more so at night.

It is fast growing and can be grown in most soils in part sun or full sun and salt soil and spray tolerant.
