An invaluable, woody, evergreen climber, which can attach itself to walls and fences by producing aerial roots. The attractive leaves are mid-green and leathery and will provide year-long interest. From early summer interesting clusters of greenish-cream flowers appear and grow up to 15cm across. These last well into autumn and provide a beautiful display. - Garden care: Plant in moist, fertile soil and do not allow the soil to dry out while the plant is getting established. Trim to fit the available space after flowering.
