This vine is so beautiful! The 1st year it was so small I doubted it would survive. This year, 2nd yr, it's big and getting bigger and has flowered all summer even in the worst heat! Seeds have germinated easily for me. I love this vine.

Pretty, dainty foliage and gorgeous frilly flowers. This vine is rated zone 9, but is perfectly root hardy for me here in zone 8.
