| Ipomoea batatas 'Sweet Caroline Bronze' |
Ornamental Sweet Potato |
| Companion Annual * * Bold, exotic, deeply lobed foliage on trailing stems. Leaves and stems are a gold-purple blend. This selection was developed to have short internodes to produce a much more compact plant with smaller leaf size and less aggressive growth. Purported to be an improved selection for containers. |
