    Rich in the violet tones, this new version of the Skyflower gives us an extended blooming season with buds forming almost year-round. Train it on a stake or a trellis or just let it climb at will, this vigorous grower will add a burst of color to any sunlit living space. (Syn. T. grandiflora 'Antigua')
