Instructions1. Plant vine in a shaded site. The plant will grow in sun but

prefers some protection from the midday sun. They are sensitive to root disturbance, planting out a potted plant.

2. Plants can be trained to grow along wires . Untrained plants can be rampant and overwhelm slower growing neighbors. Large plants can be cut back to ground level before the winter and will sprout again the next spring.

3. Water when the surface of soil is dry. Fertilize once a month for best results.

4. Plant seeds when pods are ripe. Seeds can take up to 6 weeks to grow, but can reach up to 20 feet in a year.
