year. Appreciates water during summer. 15°.

foliage, the leaves sometimes being as much as a foot long and several 
inches across. Produces over a large part of the year clusters of white 
chalice shaped fragrant flowers about 24% the size of an Easter Lily. We 
have counted as many as 500 flowers expanded on one plant at a time.

room to properly develop end express its beauty. Will stand about the 
same amount of cold as a Bougainvillea. Well grown, this vine is a
