Garden Affair : Cypress vine

 

Cypress vine is a annual vine grown during the monsoon season in our region. It grows easily and growth is so quick so that vine  can grow   at an invasive height , it needs to be tamed like any other vine to reach and cover  at desired place .                                              

Flowers and leaves  are very delicate and fernlike appearance of leaves make the whole vine very attractive .  Flowers are favorite among the humming birds and sunbirds , one of the reason Cypress vine is also called Hummingbird vine .  While there are many colors of Cypress vine blooms , scarlet red is the most common color.                                                                                                                               

Growing method and care                                                                                                                         

Cypress vine is an easy to grow vine that be grown through seeds which are easy to obtain after the blooms have wilted. Cypress vine doesn't need any special care as it is hardy in nature but due to its  thread like stem it needs to be tamed on a desired place ,vine needs to be controlled to reach desirable growth.
