Native to the West Indies and from Mexico to Panama, Queen’s wreath (or purple wreath) is a fast-growing, twining, woody vine or rounded shrub that produces wisteria-like erect to drooping axillary foot-long racemes of star-like purple flowers (15-30 flowers per raceme) in late spring to early summer.
