It grows well in our z7 yard in north Alabama with full sun and regular water. The plants die back in winter, but so far (5 years) have come back full steam in the spring. I have yellow and pink and by late summer they are 6' tall and covered with blooms.

Nice leaves, bugs didn't bother this one, lovely scent I would say medium, stayed open all day today (overcast), love the tendrils on this one. Plant is 5 feet tall. Grew very well, as cutting was started in May "05. Like the beautiful yellow color too.
