Is anyone else growing this? I can recommend it heartily. We have two in
the garden - one is scrambling through a Grevillea and a Cordyline and the
other on the front of the house is hitching a ride on a Chaenomeles and
onward and upward! I don't think it's seen very often but it's a very
attractive small-flowered climber.
Here's a pic of one growing in Shropshi http://tinyurl.com/gqcey

Yes! its a firm favourite, especially as it does so well in the shade.

It seems pretty good-tempered altogether but I wonder why it's not seen
more. It's strange how some things are grown absolutely everywhere and
others, such as this, are comparative rarities.
BTW, Charlie, that white Cobea PH gave you and us, is now roaring up one of
our trees but no signs of flowering yet. It must be well over 25' high but
we think it's too shady so we're going to try a new one in a different spot
next year. But the vigour of the growth it truly astounding.
