'Album' is a fast-growing, semi-evergreen climber with twining stems up to 9m long and ovate, glossy, dark green leaves. Jasmine-scented white flowers with yellow centres are borne in clusters from summer into autumn and followed by inedible, rounded, purple-black fruits.
Grow outdoors in moist but well-drained, neutral to slightly alkaline soil in full sun; well-suited to growing against a sunny wall. Grow under glass in loam-based compost in full light shaded from hot sun, or bright indirect light. Support plants and tie in regularly
For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.
For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot.
Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in on a rounded pot.
