Heavily scented blooms hang in racemes over evergreen foliage from late winter, through spring and into summer. Resembling a miniature flowering Wisteria, with the bonus of semi-evergreen foliage, faster growing and a more compact habit. Happy in borders and containers, where twining stems will cover an obelisk or trellis with very little support. Your local pollinators will come to investigate and enjoy a tasty treat of nectar.Endemic to open forests and woodlands in Australia, Hardenbergia violacea has been given the prestigious Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society for outstanding performance in the garden.Hardenbergia violacea prefers to be grown in well-drained soil in a sunny area, where it will reach an approximate height of 2m, spreading to around 1m. With an RHS hardiness rating of H3, some protection will be required as temperatures drop below -5 C.
