I started with a 1 foot starter plant, 'Smoothie' Apricot Thunbergia from Al's Garden Center. It is an annual vine that will quickly cover a trellis and has lovely bunches of pink-orange blooms with a black center. Plus, it blooms all summer. I have planted mine in a large terra-cotta pot with a wooden trellis for support. (right) My plant in bloom in June.Growing Tips: Thunbergia prefers full sun and moderately moist soil with a trellis or wall to climb, it will grow 12 - 15 feet tall.
