Plant details
Previously known as C. heracleifolia var. davidiana 'Wyevale', this species is unusual in that it does not climb but instead makes 90cm to 1.2m (3ft to 4ft) woody-stemmed bushes, ideal for growing in a flower border or between shrubs. The variety 'Wyevale' has scented, blue, hyacinth-like flowers in clusters from late summer until mid-autumn, filling the gap between the main summer flowers and the real autumn colours it teams wonderfully well with Japanese anemones, and looks good planted to form a ground cover carpet under fruiting trees such as crab apple or edible quince. Silver, fluffy seed-heads develop later. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
