Black-Eyed Susan Vine is a tender perennial with decorative, triangular leaves and masses of cheerful yellow or orange flowers with a dark eye. Native to tropical Africa, it is now a popular garden flower.
Thunbergia alata is an herbaceous twining vine, as this image from our 2025 trial garden demonstrates. This flower is ideal for growing on a trellis in the garden or in hanging baskets and other containers in sunny to partly shaded condition in moderately moist soil.
