I have had mine for years now and it doesnt seem to be the fast grower as advertised.Slow and lanky and very attractive to snails and slugs. It does have an unusual coloration for a vine.And i have seen large ones so they do get to be some size-just not anywhere near as large as the regular gold vine.
