Petrea volubilis

Showy flowering plant from Central America, with astonishing mauve blooms and ornamental foliage made of dark-green leaves with sandpaper surface. Petrea starts its life as a shrub and then goes up as a climber. It is better trained in pergolas or fences and will make an effect comparable to pink wisterias. Petrea has become a classic of tropical gardeining, but it shows some cold resistance and will grow and blooms outdoor on the warmer coasts of the Mediterranean. We offer a stout rooted plant. Height can be 60-120 cm tall.
