Ipomoea batatas ‘Lime’ (often sold as ‘Margarita’ or ‘Desana Lime’) is a popular, fast-growing, tender perennial ornamental vine known for its brilliant lime-green to chartreuse heart-shaped leaves. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, growing 6–12 inches tall with a trailing habit, making it ideal for hanging baskets, containers, and ground cover
Key Information & Care:
- Appearance: Bright chartreuse or lime-green leaves that may turn gold in high sun and greener in shade.
- Usage: Excellent “spiller” plant in mixed container combinations, hanging baskets, and ground cover, spreading 3–6 feet.
- Light: Thrives in full sun to partial shade; best foliage color is often achieved with afternoon shade.
- Water & Soil: Requires well-drained, fertile soil and consistent moisture, but is quite drought-tolerant once established.
- Climate: Thrives in warm, tropical, or subtropical climates (USDA Zones 8-10).
- Maintenance: Low-maintenance and very easy to grow, often treated as an annual in colder regions.
- Tuber: While the tuber is technically edible, this variety is grown for its foliage, not for culinary use.
