A vigorous climbing form of this wonderful pioneer plant with dark green leaves and long sprays of purple flowers in spring. This plant makes a great ground cover but will also climb vigorously if given something to support it.

Care Considerations:

While the plant is drought tolerant, a generous water for a couple of weeks after planting will ensure strong root growth. Responds well to pruning, including heavy pruning which can also help control its size and shape. Deadheading spent flowers is also recommended to maintain air circulation. If fertiliser is going to be used a native fertiliser is recommended.
