A breath-taking climber discovered on the Three Kings Islands in 1945. All year round you’ll admire its very glossy thick deep-green leaves, and from winter through early spring the mature vine is graced with clusters of tubular cream green-tinged flowers. Very showy.
This beautiful vine dominates gardens from late spring and through summer with delightful fragrance from a myriad of little star-shaped white flowers. This is a climber that needs support, though we've seen it used as a groundcover too! Shape and size of support will define the bush.
A neat rounded shrub with aromatic, grey, felty leaflets. Small clusters of pink flowers occur during spring. Hardy & adaptable to most soils with good drainage. Attractive grey foliage shrub for colour contrast. Compact habit - good tub subject. Grows 1x1m.
