@columbiariver they are pretty low maintenance, they like to sprawl. Mine is growing along side a vitex tree. The lower tree limbs help support it as it grows upwards... It loves it 🥰

@columbiariver I did have one in a pot, definitely stays smaller 😉 Good luck 🍀 with yours, they are a fun plant, look out for the thorns tho 🥺

Great pic @treefrog44 what's your process of growing these as they tend not to look great for long?

comment
treefrog44

In the end of summer I trim them back, they kinda get leggy and rambly...our growing season is so long, I usually get new growth to help them fill back out @tinaaune

Love when you touch them they close up, beware of tiny thorns

I have seen these not blooming, now that they have a name I recognize it. As a child I thought it was cool that they closed when you touched them!🤗
