How to take care Purple Wreath, Sandpaper Vine Flowering plant Dig holes or beds wide.Lightly amend heavy clay or sandy soils with organic matte.Gently remove plants from containers, keeping the root ball intact .Loosen potting soil and roots around bottom and edges of root ball. Plant level with surrounding soil, spreading roots outward. Fill around roots with lightly amended native soil. Provide a support for vines to climb or be tied to Woody plants need watering less frequently than tender annuals or herbaceous plants.Most established trees, shrubs, and vines can go weeks without supplemental watering except in extremely hot or windy weather .Watering from a hose or sprinkler should be done slowly and deeply, not frequently, to avoid shallow root development or root diseases. Allow soil to dry several inches deep before irrigating .When practical, especially in arid climates, use and maintain water-efficient soaker hoses or drip irrigation. Water briefly two or three times a week to keep soil moist, not wet. Most winter injury is from drying out, not cold temperatures. Be prepared to water during prolonged sunny, windy, dry spells even in the winter. Mulches help prevent water loss during hot, windy, or sunny weather Prune for size control early in the growing season, remove only what is necessary, leaving some unpruned stems to remain for a natural vine shape. Prune wayward growth as needed (when it becomes a problem). Prune dead or diseased plant parts any time of the year. Vines rarely kill trees, but can be cut back every few years to allow tree trunks to grow in diameter
