Oh my gosh! You will not believe what I came across today... A Candy Corn Plant! {A tropical vine!} Since I love Halloween, I knew I had to bring this darling little vine home to add it to one of my gardens! Good thing I didn't see the word "tropical" until I was reading up on it tonight! There is nothing "tropical" in MN! I'm not worried... I'm up for a challenge! I will have to keep you posted on this little darling! If all goes well- it should be blooming thru the fall! If I keep stopping at every greenhouse I drive by - I'm soon going to need a bumper sticker that says "I brake for flowers!" Hope this inspires you to "go out of the box" and try adding a new & unique flower to your garden!

Isn't it the cutest? I bought one two weeks ago. It wasn't blooming much until I put it in an all day sunny spot....presto...lots of candy corn!
Fun and pretty plant! Enjoy!
That is so fun and I think it would be fun to have an indoor garden with tropical plants, all year round.

Very interesting ~ never heard of it!
Hey Kris... I have no planted it yet. I guess I better think about a sunnier spot! I can't wait to it to bloom more! Have you ever had one before? I am thinking about bringing it in - haven't read yet if it will be safe for the cats!
I never heard of it before either... I couldn't pass it up once I seen it!!
