Hi Everyone!
I 've been outside cleaning the garden when I spotted My Dutchman's Pipevine blooming. I went directly for the camera. This a fascinating plant. Enjoy!!!!
Dutchman's Pipevine
Native Pipe Vine
Botanical Name: Aristolochia fimbriata
...for hosting iridescent blue and black pipevine swallowtail butterflies.
Flowers: One-inch exotic blooms of yellow and maroon resemble a trumpet shaped clay pipe; hence the common name. Blooms appear on new growths throughout the summer.
Foliage: The three-inch heart shaped green leaves are widely spaced along wiry stems and are marked with silver veins.
Snippets: This is the only plant where the pipe vine swallowtail butterfly will lay its eggs.
Flower display before leaves, late January to April.
If a healthy crop of caterpillars devour the entire above-ground growth, more will return from the tuberous roots to host the next batch of eggs.
I have a wooden screen for the pipe vine to grow on. It is beautiful in the summer with the beautiful heart-shaped leaves and the little pipes peeking out of the greenery.

Good Evening Betty Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I have never seen anything quite like this. I love this Dutchman's Pipe Vine. I would certainly love to have some seeds to give it a try here in Phoenix. It might be to hot, but I love this beautiful bloom. It is gorgeous.
I thank you for sharing. I am so tickled and happy that you shared such a beautiful treasure with me this evening.
Many hugs and much love, Sherry
I have heard of them, but never seen one in real life. Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI don't believe I have seen the Dutchman's Pipe Vine either. Live, Learn, Love.
