I have a Whiskers X Isabella cross that is blooming now, None of the crosses got that great foilage. They are late bloomers tho.
Is Whiskers yellow? My cross blooms are white, but very pretty & huge.

In my opinion, Whiskers is well worth the wait to see her beautiful blooms and long tendrils!

Whiskers is one of my favorites, love the serrated leaves (but so do the cats).

Whiskers looks fantastic Doris! I also just love the leaves. They really stand out and make a statement...
I also found out that the cats love Whiskers Linda!!!
I finally got a bloom or two after finding baby cats eating away at all the tiny buds! Saved some in the nick of time...
Emily, it has a wonderful fragrance. It's quite strong which surprised me. Here is my first bloom. Just love the tendrils
