Lavender vine?

I bought a vine the other day at a greenhouse.. they couldn't find any info. on the plant and neither can I.. the only tag on it says lavender.. but its a vine.. any tips on taking care of it??

Lavender vine?
No lavender vines. Has it got a grey 'bloom' to the leaves (probably ordinary lavender). Perhaps its got the wrong label - can you put a photo on the net.
Reply:Can you describe the plant for us? What color are the leaves, what shape are they, what do the flowers look like... A picture would be great.





There aren't any lavenders that are vines. Perhaps the grower put "lavender" on it meaning that it has a lavender colored flower and not meaning it is a lavender (Lavandula) plant.





I bought a Verbena before and the tag just said "red" - no botanical, common name or anything. I knew the plant anyway but the label was NOT helpful!!





EDIT: Could it be Cleome? They come in a range of colors with five pointed leaves. http://www.missouriplants.com/Pinkalt/Cl...
Reply:have something for it to trail on and good sun. water when dry
