Ipomoea Blackie

A long-time favorite in ornamental sweet potato programs, ‘Blackie’ delivers vigorous growth and rich, dark purple to nearly black foliage that makes an instant impact in landscapes, baskets, and containers.

With its bold color and deeply lobed, maple-like leaves, ‘Blackie’ adds dramatic contrast to any combination planting — and it doesn’t slow down. It spreads quickly, trails beautifully, and thrives in both sun and heat.

Hardy to Zones: 9-11
