Introducing the Mansoa alliacea, or garlic vine! This beautiful and fragrant plant is native to Central and South America, and gets its name from the strong garlic-like scent of its leaves. The Mansoa alliacea is a fast-growing vine that can reach up to 30 feet in length, making it a perfect choice for covering fences, trellises, and other large structures. Its dark green leaves are glossy and oval-shaped, with serrated edges. In late spring or early summer, the Mansoa alliacea produces clusters of small white flowers that are followed by edible purple fruits. The fruits have a milder garlic flavor than the leaves, and can be used in cooked dishes or eaten raw. The Mansoa alliacea is a tough plant that is relatively easy to care for. It prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Once established, it is drought-tolerant and does not need much supplemental watering. For best results, fertilize in early spring with a balanced fertilizer. If you live in a colder climate, you can grow the Mansoa alliacea as an annual or bring it indoors over winter. With proper care, this versatile and attractive plant will provide you with years of enjoyment!
