Add a spectacular display of long-lasting colour to your garden with this great value pack of 3 individual Solanum crispum Blue Climbing Plants, supplied as large, established specimens approximately 3–4ft tall, each grown in its own individual 3 litre pot by Direct Plants. Carefully grown and selected at our award-winning family nursery in Norfolk, these vigorous climbing plants are renowned for their masses of beautiful violet-blue star-shaped flowers, lush green foliage, and exceptionally long flowering season.
Solanum crispum, often known as the Blue Potato Vine, is a fast-growing ornamental climber that produces an abundance of striking blue to violet star-shaped flowers with bright golden-yellow centres from early summer right through to autumn. The colourful blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinating insects, making this an excellent choice for wildlife-friendly gardens.
This great value pack contains 3 individual large plants, making it perfect for covering walls, fences, pergolas, arches, trellises, and other garden structures. Whether planted together for maximum impact or separately throughout the garden, these vigorous climbers quickly create a colourful and impressive display.
Supplied as three strong, healthy, well-established plants, each in its own 3 litre pot, these premium climbers provide instant height, excellent establishment, and years of reliable flowering.
