- Growing notes
- Very vigorous vines can sprawl unless trained. RHS supports cordon culture outdoors or under glass and container/patio growing, in tropical climates plants may become much taller, so height depends strongly on pruning and climate. Soil/culture: clay, loam or sandy soil if moist but well drained, acidic to neutral
