Tender, so suits a conservatory or cool greenhouse. Grow in a loam-based compost such as John Innes No 2 in bright filtered light or full light with shade from hot sun. Apply a potassium rich fertiliser such as tomato feed monthly in the growing season. Water less frequently in winter
Train using the following detail: climbers: training and pruning on planting and once a twining habit is established, pruning is less frequent. Minimal pruning will leave plants looking attractive but some thinning will be needed from time to time, after flowering, to prevent accumulation of weak and older stems. Plants will usually respond to fairly hard cutting back in late winter, but may be slow to recover
