Ronnie... The variegated one is the Porcelain Berry Vine..it makes a mottled blue berry that looks like porcelain.. They spray it to kill it in the parks here as it tends to spread. I don 'have a problem as the containers are on rubber roofing and what comes up in the containers I give away
Yes..Anne.. I heard they blooms with shorter day length..and attributed the not blooming inside to it being longer light time in there as I run the lights into the night... So I thought I might have trouble again even with a big vine.. But it flowered right away... That's it though... I grew it all winter inside and in putting it out I do have shorter daylight naturally ... I wonder how long it will take the plant to readjust. And stop flowering. ..so it seems to respond to relatively shorter day time... Not say particularly. Like under 10 hours... It had maybe 15 hours of light through the winter...so there will be shorter daylight until it comes in again... I 'll always start it inside in the winter....
That first bud opened poorly in the rain... But the second one is open today... My first bloom
