  • Notes

Cissus rhombifolia is an evergreen vine with beautiful dark green leaves divided into diamond-shaped, toothed leaflets 1-4 in. long. The veins on the leaf's undersides have reddish hairs, giving foilage a bronzy overtone. Outdoors, it grows to 20 ft. and can be trained on a support.
Planting Instructions: 1. Dig a hole 2 times the width and 1 and 1/2 times the height of the container. 2. Set rootball at ground level. 3. Prepare soil mix of equal parts soil and soil amendment. 4. Backfill with amended soil. 5. Build Basin and water.
