What's more, this flower can reach up to 200cm high with 100cm spread, and it can handle temperatures as low as -15c once well established, making it a safe choice in the UK when the temperatures plummet.
Producing a profusion of luxuriant double two-toned flowers that are here to stay for many months every year, this climbing flower boasts attractive green foliage. This plant produces palm-sized flowers that develop in three conspicuous stages until fully filled, promising a real spectacle in your garden.
