The Ipomoea batatas 'Purple', commonly known as Purple Sweet Potato Vine, is a vibrant and fast-growing ground cover plant that adds dramatic color and texture to gardens. Trailing or mounding, making it ideal for ground cover, hanging baskets, or containers. Large, heart-shaped leaves that emerge chartreuse and mature to deep burgundy purple with red veins. Occasionally produces small, funnel-shaped blooms, though it's mainly grown for its foliage. Thrives in full sun to partial shade. Prefers well-drained soil and regular watering, drought-tolerant once established. Best suited for warm climates, frost sensitive.
