Notes

'Lemon A-Peel' black-eyed Susan vine (Thunbergia alata 'Lemon A-Peel') is an annual for containers, privacy screens, and pollinator gardens. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Its stems cascade, so it looks good spilling from a hanging pot or climbing a trellis. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Moonflower, Vermillionaire cuphea, and Sedge.
