4 small Bulbils for spring planting w/Instructions
Dioscorea bulbifera is a highly ornamental perennial vine with large 5-10" inch broad heart shaped leaves. The plant forms bulbils in the leaf axils of the twining stems. It is a yam species in the Dioscoreaceae family. While it is a highly desired ornamental vine, it is an invasive species in many tropical areas. In cooler climates, the vine will die back and reemerge in spring. The vine can grow extremely quickly, roughly 8 inches per day, and eventually reach over 60 feet long.
It makes a spectacular lush vine. Best in contained areas or pots in sun rooms, wherever it is not allowed to spread.
