Overview

Cascading like a snowy waterfall, this graceful evergreen climber transforms walls and trellises into a breathtaking display of pure white blooms. Plumbago auriculata 'White' boasts a profusion of five-lobed, trumpet-shaped flowers that adorn its slender, arching stems from spring through autumn, or year-round in frost-free climates. Its light green, spoon-shaped leaves provide a perfect backdrop for the clusters of unscented blossoms, creating a lush, shrub-like mass ideal for large conservatories or summer outdoor displays.

This vigorous grower excels in various garden settings, whether spilling over container edges, cascading down retaining walls, or climbing obelisks with effortless elegance. Recognized with the prestigious Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society, this impressive shrubby climber offers gardeners a versatile and stunning option for adding vertical interest and prolonged flowering beauty to a summer patio, frost free greenhouse or conservatory.

Specifications

  • Position: full sun
  • Soil: moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil
  • Rate of Growth: average
  • Flowering period: June to November

Care guide

During the growing season water well and apply a balanced fertiliser each month. To train against a wall choose three of four of the strongest stems as the main framework of the plant and regularly tie in the growing stems to horizontal wires or trellis. This is a frost-tender shrub so will require winter protection either in a greenhouse or conservatory.
