What is the plant
Say hello to the Madeira Vine, also known as Anredera cordifolia. This Vine is a bit of a wild one. It's got heart-shaped leaves and produces these tiny, sweet-smelling white flowers in late summer – its main identification feature. And it can sprawl out, we're talking 20-30 feet (6-9 meters) or even more!

How to Care for the Plant
Container
You can grow this Vine in a pot, but here's the thing: it loves to stretch out. So, unless you want some serious pruning on your hands, it's often happier in the ground. If you do choose a pot, go big and make sure it can drain because this Vine can get a bit root-happy.
Fun fact
Madeira Vine is famous for its rapid growth and is often used for ground cover due to its speedy ability to blanket large areas with its heart-shaped leaves and fragrant flowers. Also, although it's primarily ornamental, its edible tuberous roots can be cooked like potatoes or used in soups, but caution is needed due to the presence of oxalic acid.
