This seem to take a really long season to bloom here. I am only now getting a bloom or two.

About how big is that pot you have it in Evert? I am wondering because I am about to pot a cobaea scandens seedling up, and yours looks pretty happy! Thanks- Susanne

Hmm, what would I say. Maybe 30-40 cm?

Well thank you! And at second glance, do you have more than one pot of it climbing up that trellis? I love how it looks- did it have a reprise the following growing seasons for you?

I am not sure, but there might be another pot..
Haven't grown the vine since, wish it could overwinter here.. no way though. :D
