Vitis coignetae ... Agreed. *No hope without further information. *Size and texture of leaf would reduce the list by a factor of ten. Regards, Nick Maclaren. in fact, having heart shaped leaves seems a favourite trick with climbers; it allows them to tangle with each other and with whatever they are climbing on. |

Big as a dinner plate Leafs reminded me of a rubber plants leafs with out the cut outs Rubber plants leaves don't have cut outs. I think you're thinking of the Swiss cheese plant, Monstera deliciosa. I also think that you may have seen a Magnolia delavayi growing against a wall. I can't think of a climber with truly huge leaves outdoors in UK though I'm sure someone else will, if there is such a thing. There is also Rhododendron macabeanum which has large leaves but I wouldn't call those heart shaped. I suppose you did see this plant in UK? -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon (new website online but not completed - shop to come and some mild tweaking to do!) |
