I have been growing this plant for four years now. I have also started a couple more from stem cuttings. I have not been able to get it to flower. Does anyone have any tips? Thank-you! Rachele

I have been growing this vine from transplants. It is doing extremely well in a shady area of my garden and have been blooming continuously all year round. I've had only 2 transplants to start with and now, after 1 year, it's presently covering most of my fence.
