About This Plant
'Sunny White Halo' is a striking white-flowered form of Black-Eyed Susan Vine, producing large bright blooms with a bold dark center that stands out against the lush green foliage. The twining stems grow vigorously, climbing 4 to 6 feet in a season, and the plant flowers continuously all summer long without deadheading required. It is a particularly versatile vine that is just as handsome trailing from a hanging basket as it is climbing a garden obelisk.
Grow in full sun for the heaviest bloom production. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. A controlled-release fertilizer worked in at planting will carry garden plants through the season.
Treat as a frost-tender annual and plant out after nights are reliably warm. Pair with dark-leaved companions or orange flowers to let the white blooms really pop.
