Wow, great photo! I have lusted after Lapageria for a number of years, but because of its intolerance to lime I cannot grow it (water supply too alkaline).
Where was this photo taken, if I could ask?
Thanks,
Mike
Hi Mike, glad you like the photo.I took it at The Garden House, a lovely garden in Devon in the south of England on September 5. Mine flowered this year but didn't look as good as this one. I have it growing in a large pot in lime free potting compost in partial shade.
Here's a picture of the house in Devon, the Lapageria was growing under the verandah at the left.

That is just an outstanding photo of such a beautiful vine! I see pictures in the database of several different colors of this flower. Do they all end up looking like this one or are they just different types? Thanks for posting it.
