We love the large, dark green leaves and wild style tthe large Tetrastigma voinierianum or chestnut vine brings to a room! It’s lovely to have a big vine in a room - it really gives the tropical feeling of the rainforest - and this large houseplant is no exception to that! An extremely fast grower, this vine will soon cover an entire wall if you let it!
Coming from Laos, in its natural environment it grows vigorously on trees, covering them in no time at all!
It features large, verdant leaves which are slightly fuzzy and have little bumps on the underside. It’s common name is Chestnut Vine because the leaves resemble Chestnut tree leaves!
This vine would make a great houseplant gift - we can make it extra special by including a free, handwritten card. Just leave your gift message at the basket stage of checkout and we’ll do the rest! No paperwork to spoil the surprise!
