Ivies


Question
I was given a gift that was in a can manufactured someplace. The instructions said to water heavy for 2 weeks and there would be a message. Then put it in indirect sunlight. Well I did this and there was a large seed that came up with the message stamped on it.( Adventure awaits you) Now I have this beautiful Ivey? Heres what it looks like...It has grown up the wall to the ceiling in 4 months its got stems that have 3 teardrop shaped leaves. I noticed that it was blooming a purple flower that looked somewhat like an Iris. The in 4 days the flower began to die and there was this pod growing where the flower is. The pod is know aprox. 12 inches lond and it looks just like a Green Bean. I keep checking to see if more flowers are blooming but so far none. If you can help me that would be great. Also is there anyway that I might be able to grow more of these plants from the seeds in the pod and if so how do I go about doing so. Thanks  Dawn

Answer
Hello Dawn,

Finally heard back from the manufacturer...they said it is a sword bean from Korea.
