HOW IT GROWS: A perennial, primitive climber, does not attach itself to supports but it can lean on them. Slow-growing, reaching 0.3-0.4 m.

WHERE TO PLANT: Prefers light sites and well-drained soils. Frost hardy (Zone 4˗9).

HOW TO PLANT AND MAINTAIN: Place the plant in a 30 x 30 x 30 cm hole of fertile soil with a couple of cm layer of drainage at the bottom, 1 cm deeper than it was before. Plant at least 30 cm from walls or other plants. In early spring prune the dead shoots just above the ground and the live ones 5-10 cm from the base. Cover the ground around the base with bark mulch, for winter protection pile it up to 10 cm. In April fertilize with Osmocote 5-6M, water abundantly during vegetative season.
