solanum crispum glasnevin
...
there are about 1,400 members to the solanum family. I particularly like this one climber mainly for its blue and yellow dotted trailing flowers. A member of the potatoe family… for that reason I believe] I find this beauty always does well in Irish soils given half a chance.
The crispum members of the solanum family are also known as the chilean potatoe tree -If you wish to delve more into the plant names gig then click here to read more - They’re a group of fast growing, evergreen climbers that can grow to an eventual of 20 foot tall.
It is above all the first climber to make **the list** for good reason… it grows easily almost anywhere, it’ll take a good beating when it needs a little cutting back [great for those who can't look after plants so well] and worth ever s[c]ent it will cost you. Above all of that it is an absolute stunner. Enjoy!
