Symbolism
A bond that climbs

Chains of small pink hearts on a tendril vine that can bury a fence by the end of summer.

Care. Give full sun and a strong support; in frost it dies to the ground and often returns.

A note. Bees work it so hard that some tropical beekeepers plant it as a nectar crop.

Or perhaps

  • Red ginger — 5%
  • Duranta — 4%
