I love Victoria. It is virtually carefree, blooming profusely in light shade. No diseases, no pests, doesn't even need full sun to bloom, and covered a chainlink fence in one season.
Perfect!

The plant covered completely a pergola of 4.2 m diameter within 9 months and stands continuously cutting back. I grow it in my garden in Heraklion/Crete. It stops blooming only in winter at temperatures below 10C. It does not like much watering.
