Types of Tarenaya

Spider flower

Spider flower (Tarenaya hassleriana) is a flowering plant native to South America. It is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant in temperate regions and numerous cultivars with various colored flowers, such as white, pink, and purple, have been selected.

Tarenaya spinosa

Tarenaya spinosa is sometimes called the "spiny spider flower" for its evocative shape and many tendrils. It flowers late in the year and it is appreciated in gardens for that reason; while everything else withers, this plant remains vibrant and colorful. Notably, it is pollinated not by bees or any kind of insect, but rather by bats.
