Railroad Vine - Ipomoea pes-caprae subsp. brasiliensis

Create a vibrant, sprawling groundcover with Railroad Vine (Ipomoea pes-caprae subsp. brasiliensis), a short-lived perennial that showcases lush growth and stunning blooms. Growing to an impressive width of up to 60 feet while remaining only 0.5 feet tall, this vine produces eye-catching pink and purple flowers that bloom year-round, adding continuous beauty to your landscape. Perfectly suited for full sun, Railroad Vine thrives in circum-neutral to calcareous sandy soils and adapts to moisture levels ranging from slightly dry to extended dry periods—not wet conditions, though. As a nectar-rich plant, it invites pollinators to your garden, enhancing its ecological benefits while beautifying large open spaces or sunny sandy areas. /mp
