Senecio Orange commonly known as Mexican Flame Vine, Orangeglow Vine. It is a vigorous fast growing climber with thick evergreen leaves which deep green color provides a rich background for brilliant bright orange daisy-like flowers.
Senecio is a large genus of plants, with over 1,000 species dispersed around the world. Some are lovely, and others, like groundsels and ragworts, are noxious weeds. There are about 100 succulent Senecios. There are some large shrub varieties, but many are small, trailing plants or spreading ground covers. Their leaves are thick and fleshy and can be deep green, bluish, or even striped. Senecio succulent leaves vary widely in shape. Some are round, some are banana-shaped, and some stand upright. Senecio flowers form in clusters on long stems. The flowers persist for weeks—their shapes include red or white spires and yellow daisy-like flowers, but it's the foliage that interests most gardeners.
Established plants are extremely drought tolerant. They do need some water during the summer, but be careful to not leave the soil wet for prolonged periods. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings in the winter, when the plants are somewhat ​dormant.
Well-drained, dry, low in organic content, pH 6.1-7.8 (slightly acidic to slightly alkaline). Avoid fertilizing because that inhibits flowering and causes aggressive growth. This plant is salt intolerant, so chemical fertilizers must be avoided. Use organic mulch to shield the roots from winter freezes.
The plant dies to the ground below 30°F and comes back from its roots in winter temperatures above 20°F.
