Posted by poisondartfrog on Dec 26, 2011 11:58 AM CST: I regreted planting this delicately colored vine in the "hot" garden. It has black mature bean pods that provide nice contrast, but the flowers would look better to me with more subdued companions. The plants don't much care what I think. It is back every year, right where it started.
