abwsco Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 What's the proper name for this plant. The garden centre had some climbing ones in yesterday but stupidly I didn't ask him about them Was wondering about it for up the garage wall. I'm struggling to find out about them on the www as well (probably me and my search though )Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beach chick Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I think they are annuals, so if you want a permanent climber it wont do. I 'think' the proper name might be thunbergii or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Thunbergia is right, there are a few varieties. I've got a lovely deep orange one called 'Sunny Susie' on my windowsill, it is an outdoor plant but I've kept mine inside because it's doing so well and it brightens up the kitchen.

abwsco Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Thanks BC and Olly I don't do annuals or bedding plants.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 How about a Clematis armandii? Vigorous grower, evergreen, scented flowers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
