An ornamental climber, supporting itself by means of aerial roots. White flowers are borne in large, flattened cymes. Attractive heart-shaped, slivery glaucous leaves turn yellow in autumn. Though slow-growing (0,5m of annual growth), it eventually reaches 6m.
Superb species for partially shady or shady positions, walls, tree trunks and as ground cover.
