Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A perennial herbaceous vining member of the Campanula (Bellflower) family from a wild collection in Pingwu, Mianyang, Sichuan, China. This has hirsute pale green leaves and loves to twine on thin twiggy stuff like a Exbury Azalea where it can display its pale greenish white bell flowers often intricately traced in a fine dark venation. One of the taller species in the genus, this can easily make annual growth each year to 8' or 10'.
