Gorgeous Pauline! Do you grow this in your garden! I tried and failed – goofy climate. It is such a fascinating flower! Congratulations on your Features!

Hi Jayne- they grow like weeds- this one is growing among my conifers and winding its way round everything so have put an arch up for it to clamber over- lovely colours and then soft orange fruits-shame you can’t get them to grow, thought they would manage anywhere!!! Happy you enjoy mine!! x

Hi Pauline,
