I had no idea they bloomed. I think I will try raising a potful in the spring.

It has nothing to do with the owner, just the weather. You can get these in nearly every nursery in So CAl... not sure about the rest of the country.

I love this weird little plant but it does not appear to like my humid garden. The hurricanes don't help either!
However, after some research here at Dave's garden, I will try a different appproach. Maybe inside, at least for the summer. Also, I'll have to remember to forget to water...no problem.

Oh, and thanks, palmbob, I love your articles. This kindergarten teacher loves a read with lots of photos!

Haven't seen them in stores yet. Will sure look. I'd like to replace the one lost after several moves.
(I moved from town to town, the plant didn't want to go) :)
The only way I ever knew to get one was by 'gifting' from friends. My Grandma always called this a rosary vine.
