Water
Water consistently, especially during dry periods, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogged conditions, as this can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering in winter when the plant is less active.
Durando's bindweed (Convolvulus durandoi) is a visually striking plant with attractive trumpet-shaped flowers. It's a member of the morning glory family.

Water consistently, especially during dry periods, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogged conditions, as this can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering in winter when the plant is less active.
Prune back annually in late winter or early spring to encourage vigorous new growth and flowering. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing stems. This also helps maintain a desirable shape and size, preventing overgrowth.
Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer or from seeds sown in spring. Cuttings should be rooted in a well-draining potting mix. Seed germination can be erratic, so multiple sowings are recommended.
Repot in spring before new growth begins, typically every 2-3 years. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid encouraging too much root growth. Use a well-draining compost mixture.
