Solanum crispum is an evergreen vine that climbs to 12 feet, with 5" inch long leaves that are wavy on the edges. 'Glasnevin' produces fragrant 4" - 5" inch clusters of star-shaped blue flowers with yelow centers. The plant is hardy, but may lose its leaves in a hard frost. New leaves will sprout the following spring. Plant likes full sun to partial shade, little water and average garden soil.
