Flirty, fiery, and wildly theatrical, Mina lobata ‘Exotic Love Vine’ is a fast-growing annual climber that turns trellises, fences, arbors, and obelisks into a living flame. Also known as Spanish Flag Vine or firecracker vine, it produces elegant sprays of tubular flowers that shift from red to orange to creamy yellow as they mature.

This tropical-looking vine brings serious vertical drama without taking itself too seriously. Let Exotic Love Vine scramble up a sunny support, soften a blank wall, or mingle with morning glories, black-eyed Susan vine, or ornamental grasses for a lush summer display. Hummingbirds love the colorful blooms, and gardeners love how quickly it adds height, movement, and a little delicious chaos to the garden.

Plant Mina lobata in full sun with rich, well-drained soil and regular water. Provide support early, then stand back as it twines, blooms, and steals the show. A bold choice for seasonal color and pollinator-friendly plantings, it is part of our Best Selling - Perennials & Biennials collection.
