Unusual! |
| For those of you into unusual climbers, this is a fun one. Here in NE Ohio, while not exactly a vigorous or highly productive bloomer, it does its thing in late August-late thru September bearing very fragrant, funky-looking flowers that create a lot of attention. Unfortunately have not had success with any indoor overwintering techniques, so I treat it as a luxury annual. |
