hi, i need help in picking a couple of plants for my conservatory. i
would
like the plants to be green all year round and be able to cope with
extreme
weather. all help appreciated. please reply to newsgroups.

thanks in advance.


If you want a good climber Pandorea jasminoides, and Pandorea pandorana
are
good

And again, I'd like to suggest Holboellia! We have one flowering in
one of the larger greenhouses right now and it's knocking everyone's
socks off with the scent. They just can't believe that it can be grown
outside, that those small flowers are so highly scented and that it's
evergreen. It flies out of the nursery at this time of year.

I always thought that Holboellia was a bit tender and needed cosseting?
Which particular one are you growing? It sounds like it might be worth a try
in W. Yorkshire perhaps.
