Cobaea are woody or herbaceous climbers that bare stunning pinnate leaves and large,bell-shaped flowers. They are best suited to a sheltered spot against a sunny wall or trellis within an informal or cottage garden setting. You should expect to see Cobaea grow to an approximate height of 4 metres (13’) and a spread of 1 metre (3’).

Cobaea are sensitive to extreme weather conditions, especially the cold and so ensure they receive adequate protection if temperatures drop. Cobaea will require support as they grow as this will retain tidy, strong and neat growth. If you need to control their size as they mature, pinch the stems when they reach the top of the support or once at eye level. This will encourage branching and bud set. Water regularly but do not let the soil become waterlogged.
It is possible to propagate Cobaea by seed or softwood cuttings.
