Thunbergia alata, commonly known as Yellow Thunbergia or the yellow form of the Black-eyed Susan vine, is a delightful ornamental climber admired for its cheerful yellow blooms with a contrasting dark centre. This vine produces slender twining stems with heart- or arrow-shaped green foliage, creating a lush, cascading effect when grown over trellises, walls or pergolas. In warmer regions, it can climb up to 8 ft or more, while in cooler climates it is often grown as a seasonal annual or container vine.

Globally appreciated for its vibrant flowers and ease of cultivation, it has also become popular in India as a decorative climber in gardens, balconies, and resort landscapes. Its tropical charm and long flowering season lend an elegant yet playful accent to landscapes and interiors alike.
