Accession Data:

Petraeovitex bambusetorum King & Gamble

  • Common Name: Nong Noch Vine
  • Family: Lamiaceae Lindl.

  • Country of Origin: Pen. Malaysia (Perak), Borneo

  • Culture: Nong Noch Vine prefers warm conditions. We have had mixed results growing it in cool greenhouses during the winter. It doesn't seem to have any problems with insects with the possible exception of mealy bug, but only if other already infected plants are nearby. The root system is vigorous and apparently has no problems with root diseases. Flowering usually doesn't begin until it has "filled out", meaning that it has climbed approximately 4' to 5' high. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer on a regular basis. We recommend 1/2 tsp/gallon per week. This will keep it green and growing. Any standard potting mix will work for soil; it seems to adapt to a wide range of soil conditions.3
