Conan Troutman Posted February 12, 2007 Nice!Yes Ace it is. I like the caapi cheers, caapi is potted so it can be over wintered properly this year , just made it through the last one with a single leaf, 3months later it is has climbed its way to the top of an 8ft camelia. Im curious how far south people are growing the vine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alice Posted February 12, 2007 Im curious how far south people are growing the vine? i'm a little north of sydney, and no problems leaving her outside during winter. she keeps growing thru the cooler weather. nowhere near as far south as you tho. a little off topic: i was a bit puzzled with the slow growth rate at the beginning of spring this year, she's in the ground and only got rain water since she never looked like needing extra. then i gave her a good soaking over a few days, and now she's taking over! couldn't believe just how fast she took off. water water water people!

Same thing happened with mine in Sydney, Alice... She grows 5cm+ per day on numerous stems/vines! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conan Troutman Posted February 12, 2007 Im a bit further south than adelaide, any caapi in southern vic or tassie? Can be watered most everyday as apoth said and i also find it likes to be fed regulary. Klue: Make sure your colubrina is getting plenty of sun and be sure to let the soil dry out between waterings.
