Description

A plant from my childhood, where I loved it because it flowers (hugely) prolifically all the way through summer until almost Christmas to totally cover a south-facing wall. It’s a quick-growing climber with jasmine, crossed with potato-like flowers which I used to pick as great cascading tresses to bring inside. A brilliant value garden classic.

Care Tips

Prefers moist but well-drained soil in a sheltered, sunny spot. Ideal for growing against a sunny wall. Will require support. All parts of the plant are toxic if ingested. Wear gloves when handling.
