Sweetheart Mahogany™ Sweet Potato Vine is a saturated mahogany red and retains its color well in full sun. The habit is mounded due to shorter internodes, but it does trail as it matures through the season. A good match to Sweet Caroline Sweetheart Jet Black™ and Sweetheart Lime. It's easy to care for, too, making this plant all contrast and no compromise! 

  • 6-16 inches tall and 20-36 inches wide at maturity
  • Annual except in zone 11, be sure to check your USDA zone to ensure success
  • Plant in part to full sun (4+ hours daily)
  • Space plants 12-18 inches apart for best results
  • Maintains burgundy-red foliage spring to frost
  • Great for borders, containers, landscapes, mass planting
  • Heat tolerant, foliage interest, deadheading not necessary

Care: Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food for best performance. Prune to shape as desired throughout the season.

Customers praised this vigorous vine for its "beautiful color" and fast growth in containers. Most plants arrived healthy with excellent root systems. "Growing like gangbusters!" shoppers said. However, two customers reported wilting issues, possibly due to overwatering or hydroponic systems. The vine performs well with minimal care.

This was easy to grow, stayed controlled in the containers and is a bold look! Some were on drip irrigation, others were in pots that relied on me to remember-they both did equally well. In fact, I think the slightly neglected look the best. Not too aggressive.

Thank you for sharing!! We're so happy to hear that you are enjoying your plants! :)

My first time growing this. It is vigorous and hardy and is my spiller in several pots and a raised bed. The purplish color goes well with everything.
