About

Cissus tiliacea is a species of the Cissus genus in the Vitaceae family. It is also incorrectly known as Vitis tuberosa.

How to grow it

This plant can tolerate high heat and full sun to light shade exposure. During the summer C. tiliacea should be watered regularly and drained well. During the winter months, when dormancy occurs, the plant requires much less water and should only be water once every two to four weeks to prevent excessive drying. Frost damage occurs at 28 °F so the plant should be maintained at a temperature above this, preferably in the 40-50 °F range. USA hardiness zones 9b-11 are recommended for best growth.

Where it grows

This species is native to Puebla, Mexico, where it can be found in rocky outcrops at an elevation of 5000 feet.
