Description
The plant with so many common names - Paddy's Wig, Corsican Creeper, Friendship Plant, Bread and Cheese, Baby's Tears, Paddy's Tears, The Pollyanna Vine - the list is endless.
A Victorian favourite that has all but been lost from cultivation, it always graced the edges of Victorian conservatory benches in a foil of neat bright green leaves to drape the edges.
It can also be planted in cracks in crazy paving outside as well as cleverly sculptured over a chicken mesh 'framing' packed with suitable growing media. Extremely versatile.
- Grows to approximately 4" (10 cm) tall.
- Has an indefinite spread.
- Prefers shade to full sun.
- Plant 12" (30 cm) apart.
- Frost tender - so in severe winters can be 'knocked back' drastically, but invariably recovers the following year.
