Phaseolus caracalla
Phaseolus caracalla, commonly known as the Snail Vine, is a climber grown for its fragrant, corkscrew-like flowers which are coloured pink, purple and cream. These showy blooms are borne through summer and autumn, and sit just abreast of the lush, dark green foliage. It grows quickly as a twining vine to a height of 6 m or more, but can be trimmed as necessary. Phaseolus caracalla is perfect for growing on fences or other structures where quick coverage with an attractive plant is required. It is also well suited for tropical plantings.
