Rhodochiton atrosanguineusPurple Bell Vine

Pot up Rhodochiton plants and grow them on in warm, frost free conditions until plants are well grown. When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions. Plant out in patio containers or borders in any moist, well-drained soil. Choose a sheltered position in full sun and provide support for its climbing stems.

Feed and water Rhodochiton plants regularly. Train stems onto an obelisk or against a fence or wall, to support them as they grow. Rhodochiton atrosanguineus requires frost free conditions. Cut back the old stems, and move container-grown plants to a frost free greenhouse in autumn. Reduce watering during the winter months, keeping the soil barely moist. Plants grown in borders are unlikely to survive the winter outdoors and are therefore best treated as annuals.
