Plant description
A new and attractive woody, evergreen climber with rich, dark green leaves which often turn bronze in winter. Unlike its well-established and much-loved relative, its flowers are yellow (from creamy to buttery), but they still have the same sweet perfume. These appear in clusters over a long period from summer to autumn. Happiest grown against a warm, sunny wall in milder areas, it is said to be hardy to -10C, but in areas prone to severe frosts it will need winter protection.
