These dont look much at the moment, but really love these little treasures. Theyve germinated really well. Well worth getting going early as they take a little time. Otherwise known as the cup and saucer vine. Nice deep purple flowers. Gorg!

Ty Lil, Ill show you when theyre all blooming away merrily. I really like these. Dont worry about the cloisonne Pimp. I dont have time to polish the blooming things at the moment. Far too busy with me seeds!

Yes ML, they are a climber. I usually grow them in a large pot and put a wigwam of canes in - like sweet peas. Otherwise Ill grow them in with another climber - like a rose. If you have a new arch or something you want to cover quickly they are very useful for that.
Amy, its not too late, get some on the go quick. I sowed some of the eccremocarpus that you kindly sent me. It has germinated really well so I should have another nice climber to go with the Cobea. Red and purple...mmmm love em!

How much time do seeds need to germinate? I sow the a few days ago in small pots on the window
