Pretty Clem Wisley Cream.

No wonder you post photos every year - it's lovely! :)

Thank you Balc, it is joyful to see..:))

Absolutely beautiful Janey.

Truly lovely! What a marvellous Xmas present every year.

Looks a very Christmassy climber Janey.

It's really lovely Janey, I wish I had somewhere I could grow one ...

Thank you Klahanie..:)

It is BB, especially when I forget it's there all the rest of the year. A few bumblebees have been busy collecting pollen even in December, so I'm pleased for them..

Thanks Julia, it really is..

Thank you Hywel, if you've room on one of your trellises, it would do well there.

Looks great, a good one to have. I’ve nowhere to put one either :-(

Thanks Janey, maybe I'll plant one in a pot and it can grow on my patio where I'll be able to see it when it flowers :)

Added to favourites! Hope to find a place for one, one day. x

That's a shame Ff, Hywel's planning on planting one in a pot, good idea! It is a bit rampant when it gets going, I'm sure my neighbour enjoys it too, her side of the wall.

Yes that's a good idea Hywel, it does love to scramble, but you'll be able to keep it in check..:)

Thanks Sheila! x

Janey, this so pretty. Do you think if I planted it alongside my Grapevine that it would clothe the bare stems in the Winter? It may look really daft in the Summer though! Is it totally evergreen or does the foliage fall please?

Hi Shirley, yes it would after a couple of years. It is totally evergreen and is quite rampant once it gets going. I'm sure you could keep it in check though.
I give it a close haircut with my hedge trimmer as far as I can reach in late spring.
It does have similar seedheads to the tanguticas too.

Thanks Janey ... :o)
