    Stunning, fiery orange flowers with a dramatic central dark eye stud. This vigorous, twining climber is wonderful for adding dense green foliage and colour to quickly cover a trellis against a sunlit fence, ‘Sunny Susy New Orange’ will look equally spectacular growing up an obelisk in a container. Alternatively, grow in a warm conservatory where it will remain a tender, evergreen perennial.

  • Garden care: Keep under glass where temperatures dip below 5°C, only moving outside after the frosts have passed. A twining climber, it will need support, and it should be watered freely when in growth with a balanced liquid fertiliser applied monthly.
