Field Notes

Description:

It's a purely decorative member of the potato family. The vines are grown for the pretty little star-shaped, jasmine-scented flowers that can bloom nearly year round. Eventually, the flowers turn into berries, which are reportedly toxic.

Habitat:

Urban house fence landscaping.
