Ipomoea 'Ace of Spades'

Sweet Potato Vine

Plant Type: Annual

'Ace of Spades' has dramatic dark purple foliage that almost looks black and large heart shaped leaves. It is a very vigorous grower and will quickly cascade down from any container it is placed in. As an added bonus, it is heat tolerant and low maintenance; in fact, it grows so quickly all that is needed is a quick trim if it ever gets too long. It looks great in hanging baskets and containers where it can spill over the edge, but it could also be used as a groundcover or the front of beds in the landscape as well.
