The Thunbergia Alata, better known as Black-Eyed Susan has become even more colourful. Until recently, the Black-Eyed Susan was only available in yellow and orange but breeders have now managed to create cultivars in other colours. With its magnificent bright colours, this is a splendid subject for the patio or decking. Black-Eyed Susan is native to tropical Africa and loves heat. It is named after its striking black heart, which looks just like the pupil of an eye. The flowers are yellow, orange or red. This particular fast-growing vine blooms all summer long until late autumn.
Care
Thunbergia Alata is usually grown as an annual plant. It is possible to overwinter this perennial in a warm conservatory or greenhouse. Thunbergia Alata is a fantastic tub plant. Use a large flower pot, planter or hanging basket (minimum diameter of 50cm) with holes in the bottom. The long shoots of Thunbergia Alata will look beautiful if they cover a frame, a climbing support or bamboo canes. Place the climbing frame firmly in the pot. Furthermore, the plant should be watered regularly. It also likes to be given nutrition.
