I bought the pink and the white bower vines last year to cover a masonry wall in our front yard. All the Bower vines are not only doing well but really thriving. I have them planted in an area that receives some afternoon shade but these vines are hardy. The variegated leaved on some of the bower vines are exceptionally beautiful. Armstrong is my go to nursery for all my p,ant needs. The staff are all so helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. .
