| Varieties Available | Merremia Dissecta |
On my morning walks around the neighborhood, I stumbled across a vine growing on a fence near Interstate 10. Each morning I either missed the blooms or they didn’t have any that day, but I did manage to take a few photos of the leaves, seed pods, and buds. This allowed me to identify the plant as the Alamo Vine. Since then, I have grown out this unique beauty and have acquired several new photos.
