How to Select Healthy Honeyvine？

Honeyvine should be chosen with vibrant, green leaves and an absence of discoloration or spots. Check for signs of pests such as webbing or small insects on the undersides of leaves. The plant should have a robust stem and show no symptoms of wilting or stunted growth. Ensure the roots are white and healthy, not brown or mushy. A healthy, well-watered soil is also a good indicator. Inspect thoroughly to confirm the plant's overall vigor before purchase.
