How To Grow A Snail Vine.
Why not try growing the lovely snail vine plant if you’re searching for something a little unusual to grow? Learning how to cultivate a snail vine, as well as taking care of one, is simple if you have the right conditions. Snail vine (Vigna Caracalla), also known as corkscrew vine, Bertoni bean, corkscrew flower, and twisted-flowered kidney bean, is a legume with several names. This climbing vine can reach a height of 15 to 20 feet, but it can be kept in pots indoors to keep it smaller. Snail vines can be grown from seed and planted outside in full sun, on a sunny porch, or in a greenhouse. Snail vine is hardy in zones 9 through 11 of the United States Department of Agriculture’s plant hardiness zones. This lovely tropical vine from Central and South America has lavender and white blossoms and thrives in full light and heavy humidity. It’s also known as a snail bean or corkscrew plant, and it looks lovely in a hanging basket or container, where it can dangle up to 15 feet (4.5 metres) if allowed.
