The Yellow Zebra Potato Vine is a vigorous grower that will quickly push out beautiful foliage along the reaching vines. This variety is also known as Solanum jasminoides, and it boasts yellow and green variegation on long, pointed leaves. This plant will bloom during the spring and summer, and while the flowers are lovely, this plant is grown for its showy foliage.
The vines of this plant can reach 4 feet long and look amazing when used to cover an arbor or trellis or create a curtain of greenery hanging down from a basket or window box. Yellow Zebra Potato Vine may need assistance covering a fence or lattice, so be prepared to lend a hand and weave the vines along the support or use twine to secure the vines in place. Plant this climbing thriller in a landscape container, or use the foliage to give a patio or outdoor area some privacy.
Yellow Zebra Potato Vine Care
The Yellow Zebra Potato Vine requires partial to full sun. This plant also likes consistent water, so give the plant a drink before the soil dries out, but be careful not to overwater because this plant does not like soggy conditions. Well-draining, rich soil that has a 7.0 to 8.0 pH is ideal. Apply a water-soluble fertilizer every other week during the growing season.
Yellow Zebra Potato Vine is a fast-growing plant, so it can easily overtake an area. Cut the vines back if the plant starts to outgrow or overwhelm the space. This plant is grown as an annual in most areas, but it can be brought indoors to overwinter. Trim the vines back, place the plant in a bright spot, and water when the soil starts to dry out.
Yellow Zebra Potato Vine Spacing
The vines of this plant can reach 24 to 48 inches, and the plant will reach 18 to 24 inches wide. When used as part of a landscape, the Yellow Zebra Potato Vine can be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart or feature 3 to 4 plants in a 12-inch container.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
