This stunning Florida Native is best described as a sprawling, vine-like shrub and does best when given a support structure. It is tolerant of moist soils and the fragrant blooms attract bees, butterflies, and birds. Plant in the ground using a Success Kit and fertilize with Espoma Holly-tone in spring and fall to add acid to the soil. Trim back by 1/3rd  in early spring as leaves start to return.
