Abstract

‘NCORNSP-029SCBC’ is a vigorous, highly-twining, climbing variety of Ipomoea batatas producing many shoots. It is distinguishable from other ornamental sweetpotato cultivars by its palmate, deeply lobed leaves with 3-5 lobes, an aggressive climbing habit, and heavily branched architecture. The purple leaves, long internodes, and the plant architecture, which promotes good plant production in the greenhouse for wholesale distributors, distinguishes ‘NCORNSP-029SCBC’ amongst the current ornamental sweetpotatoes in the marketplace. ‘NCORNSP-029SCBC’ exhibits very good vigor and is very well branched. ‘NCORNSP-029SCBC’ is suitable for use in vertical landscape or container plantings.
