Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The gold leaf form. PROFUSE, FRAGRANT white flowers in late summer on a 'Polygonum' that is nothing like it's cousins. It's a VINE, not a ground cover. It is vigorous and excellent for covering fences and buildings. Blooms for a long, long time! This is actually almost surely the cultivar 'Lemon Lace' BUT we purchased it originally as 'Aureum' so continue to use that name.
