Chocolate Vine

Beautiful maroon-chocolate flowers which have an exotic spicy fragrance with a hint of vanilla, appear in spring. They stand out against the dark green, three-lobed leaves, which have a purple tinge in winter. This unusual semi-evergreen climber is excellent for training over low walls or up a trellis, and in a warm summer, large sausage-shaped fruit can form.Position: sun or partial shadeSoil: moist but well-drained soilRate of growth: averageFlowering period: March to MayFlower colour: maroon-chocolate flowersOther features: spicily scented flowersHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: Prune back in after flowering, trimming back to fit the area where planted
