Ibervillea Tenuisecta#59
Ibervillea tenuisecta, commonly known as the Globeberry, is a fascinating caudiciform vine native to the arid regions of the southern United States and Mexico. It's a captivating addition to any succulent or caudiciform collection, admired for its unique swollen base (caudex), delicate twining vines, and vibrant red berries.
Appearance
Caudex: The plant develops a large, globular caudex that serves as a water storage organ, enabling it to survive in harsh, dry environments. The caudex is typically gray or brown and can grow quite large over time, adding a striking sculptural element to its overall appearance.
Vines: Slender, twining vines emerge from the caudex during the growing season. These vines can reach lengths of up to 10 feet (3 meters), gracefully climbing on nearby structures or trailing along the ground.
Leaves: The vines bear small, heart-shaped leaves that are bright green and slightly succulent. The leaves are deciduous, meaning they fall off during the dormant period.
Flowers: In the spring and summer, the plant produces small, yellow flowers with a hint of green.
Growth Habits and Care:
Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade.
Soil: Requires well-draining soil.
Watering: It is highly drought tolerant. Water deeply but infrequently during the summer growing season. In winter, when the plant is dormant and has shed its leaves, it requires little to no water.
Additional Information:
Ibervillea tenuisecta is a relatively slow-growing plant.
Its unique caudex, delicate vines, and vibrant berries make it a visually appealing and conversation-starting addition to any collection.
This Plant comes in a 190mm diameter container and the plant you see is the plant you get. The plant will be shipped bare rooted.
