Doxantha  unguis-cati (commonly known as Cat's Claw Creeper) is a extremely fast-growing, woody vine native to tropical and subtropical regions of Central and South America. It gets its name from its claw-like tendrils, which help it climb walls, trees, and other surfaces.

Key Features:

  • Flowers: Bright yellow, trumpet-shaped, and highly ornamental.
  • Growth Habit: Vigorous climber that can spread extensively, often covering large areas.
  • Uses: Popular as a decorative plant for trellises and walls.
  • Care: Thrives in well-drained soil, full sun to partial shade, and tolerates drought once established.
Seed Starting Method

Cat’s Claw Creeper seeds don’t require scarification but soaking them can speed up germination. Soak the seeds in room-temperature water for 12–24 hours.

  • Prepare the Growing Medium:

  • Sow the Seeds:

    • Cover with a thin layer of soil (approximately 1–2 mm) or just enough to keep them in place.
  • Water Gently:
    Mist the soil with a spray bottle to moisten it without displacing the seeds.

Growing tips

 

Acacia Floribunda 'Sallow Wattle' Do not be to quick to discard pots that haven't yet shown signs of seed germination. Seeds will often lay dormant until conditions are optimal and will produce amazing results, long after they have been forgotten.
