HI!

Do you know where I can get seeds of this plant from? I've tried to find some online seeds store, but no luck so far. Or, do you happen to have them for exchange or SASE?

Thanks

Chico Fogaça

Hello, Chicofc, this plant makes very few seeds, as a matter of fact they are rare. But I have seen some pods occasionally. I will check for those this Fall and if I find some I will be glad to send them to you.
I will need your name and address.
Thank you for noticing my picture.
Sincerely, Josephine Keeney

Josephine,

I just bought my first crossvine today and am researching it here on DG. Wow...yours on the fence is stunning! Is it still beautiful 2 years later?

Wow! I'm entranced! I have been wanting to plant one of these and found some growing on the far corner of my property today. I transplanted 2 shooters and wanted to know how long it took for it to cover your fence so completely?

Excuse me, could you tell me how to train this crossvine? Do you train it while it's young? How do you train it along a chain link fence so that it covers up the whole fence, top and bottom? Will the vine die if it is trained downward? Thank you!

Thanks so much for posting this picture of the whole plant in context! So many gardeners just post the bloom and the fuller picture is so helpful.
