Very Rare

| Hardiness Zones 7-9

Anredera cordifolia (Boussingaltia basseloides) is a deciduous perennial vine with rather fleshy leaves and sprays of tiny white fragrant flowers. It has tuberous roots and climbs by twining. The leaves and tubers are apparently edible. It will need a winter mulch in areas with colder winter temperatures. Native to South America but widely cultivated in warm regions. Has become invasive in some subtropical regions including Australia but as far as we know has not been a problem in the southern U.S. Although called "Madeira vine", it is apparently native to South America.

Flower/Foliage

The potato-like tubers, produced on aerial stems covered in warts, are specific and typical in identifying the plant, but can grow to 25 cm in diameter. Masses of fragrant, cream flowers occur on simple or 2-4-branched racemes, pendent to 18cm cm long excluding the common peduncle, up to 30 cm including it, with numerous small, white, fragrant flowers. Pedicels are 2-3 mm long, bracts 1.5-1.8 mm long and lanceolate-subulate. Lower bracteoles are 0.5-1 mm long and cupulate, with upper bracteoles 2-2.5 mm long and suborbicular. The five tepals are 2-3 mm long and elliptic-oblong to broadly elliptic. Filaments are narrow-triangular, widely divergent, bending outwards near base, with a single style shorter than the stamens and clavate.

Plant Success Tip #1

Unpack Promptly

Carefully unpack your plant as soon as it arrives. Check the roots and soil to ensure they are still moist. If the roots feel dry, lightly mist or water them before proceeding with planting or temporary storage.

Plant Success Tip #2

Acclimate Your Plant

Allow your plant to adjust to its new environment by placing it in a sheltered spot for a day or two before planting, especially if it has traveled a long distance. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures right away.

Plant Success Tip #3

Follow Planting and Care Instructions

Plant your new arrival as soon as possible, following the specific care guidelines provided. If planting outdoors isn’t immediately possible, temporarily pot it in well-draining soil to maintain health until conditions are suitable.
