Marsdenia oreophila

There are only a few hardy members of the Asclepiadaceae. This one is a nearly hardy climber - in a protected site it will survive most of the time, at least in the south of the country.
I have had it for a couple of years, but it is only this year that it has really started to grow and flower. It is much loved by mealybug so I have to keep a close eye on it while it is in the greenhouse (it will go out one day, I just need a warm place and some confidence).
