Full sun.
SOIL: Too rich a soil will cause more foliage and fewer flowers. Sandy, well drained soil is best. Prefers slightly alkaline to very acid soils.
WATER: Cypress Vine does not like to dry out. Water frequently if there is not enough natural moisture.
SPECIAL CARE: The vines attach themselves to supports and don’t need to be tied. You can aim the vines in the direction you want them to go by twisting them on to a trellis or other structure.
Seeding Info: OUTSIDE: Spring, after last average day of last frost or until early summer when temperatures warm up. Plants started too early outside will end up less vigorous than plants started when temperatures are warmer. INSIDE: 6-8 weeks before planting outside (late spring, early summer). Sow into pulp pots and transplant directly outside to avoid disturbing roots. Easy to grow from seed. Unlike Morning Glory which benefits from soaking seeds for 12 hours, Cypress Vine does not require this soaking.
