Sweet potato vines are often used to spill out of pots of flowers, but now one company has created a sweet potato vine that doesn't just spill, it climbs.
Ball FloraPlant has created the first self-climbing sweet potato plant, one of the top 2018 plant entries that will be at your local garden store soon.
The SolarTower Black Ipomoea comes in both black- and lime-colored leaves. It quickly grows up to 7-feet tall and doesn't require any trimming or training to climb. It does well in full sun to light shade, according to PennLive.com.
