During their first flush in late spring or early summer, the pink and white flowers of this showy climber are mainly semi-double in form, but during the second flush in late summer or early autumn, the flowers tend to have just a single ring of petals around the cluster of golden stamens. Its striking colouring makes it easy to mix, and it offers a prolonged season of interest.
Remove dead and damaged stems before growth begins in early spring, cutting all remaining stems back to where strong buds are visible. Apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant in early spring.
To avoid dry conditions, and to ensure good soil contact around the rootball, we advise planting climbers at least 30cm (12in), and preferably 45-60cm (18-24in) away from the base of a wall or fence. An even larger distance should be maintained when planting climbers beside an existing tree or shrub.
