Bluebell creeper. Evergreen, woody-based twining climbers, grown for their attractive, nodding, blue flowers. Bell-shaped blooms are carried from mid-summer into autumn. Best in rich, moisture retentive, but well-drained soil and full sun to part shade. Exhibits a sprawling habit with sporadic arching stems. Useful along borders, steps, half-shaded banks or cascading over walls. Plants in our garden have done very well in the deep shade of Eucalyptus. Provide support for vining effect. Moderate water.
