Climbers

Walls, trellises and pots : a graphic passion flower from May to the frosts Vigorous and spectacularly climbing, this polyploid hybrid attaches itself thanks to its tendrils. Evergreen in mild winter regions, semi evergreen in colder areas, it must be protected during temperatures of under -8°C. The large foliage, formed of 3 to 5 lobes with pronounced veins, is shiny and of an attractive dark green. From May until the frosts several flowers appear daily. They can reach 12 cm in diameter and surprise us with their pure white petals, sepals and filament crowns. The 5 green stamens and the 3 dark stigmata stand out well from the white. The scented flowers last several days. They are followed by decorative, non-edible yellow-orange fruits of about 6 cm. Very decorative and graphic during the whole summer, RIVERSIDE® 'Snow Queen' decorates walls and trellises and can also be grown in pots.

An unusual climber with multiple, intensely blue bell-like flowers Sollya heterophylla is an attractive and abundant climber for gardens where the climate is mild. It flowers freely from June to September. Its blue bell-like flowers spread from the junction with its leaves. This new variety, ULTRA BLUE, produces flowers that are larger and of a deeper, more luminous blue than the typical variety. Its habit is also better branched. Its twigs and leaves are fine but dense. The whole gives the impression of a well-developed climbing shrub from which emerge numerous tiny bells of blue.It's essentially a woody plant with herbaceous vegetation. In open ground Sollya heterophylla ULTRA BLUE should be limited to sheltered gardens in mild, coastal or Mediterranean climates, since it has a low resistance to frost. Easy to cultivate, it has a good resistance to drought. Grown in a large pot, it will decorate a terrace or patio during the warm months and can be over-wintered under glass or in a veranda.
