Pandorea jasminoides ‘Rosea Superba’ is a vigorous evergreen climber, bearing large pendulous sprays of purple-spotted pink flowers. Tender, it’s best grown in a conservatory or greenhouse, where it will flower all summer long. However, in milder regions, it may survive if grown in a sheltered, sunny spot outside.
For best results grow Pandorea jasminoides ‘Rosea Superba’ in moist but well-drained soil or compost, in a sunny sheltered position. If growing outside, train it against a sunny, south-facing wall. Feed fortnightly with a high-potash fertiliser such as tomato feed, and prune back after flowering.
