An excellent ground-covering semi-herbaceous climber with large, dark green leaves densely spreading over the ground. Small pinkish-mauve flowers in large panicles. It grows rampantly (3-4 m of annual growth), filling the space between trees and shrubs. When no support is provided it makes charming ground cover. Looks lovely when intermingled with other plants, ideal for growing through small shrubs. A hardy and healthy cultivar. Particularly useful for covering low walls, stones and old stumps. Makes good ground cover.
