Snail vine is a twining vine that can climb up to 4.5 meters! This fast growing, magical vine produces interesting and fragrant creamy white, lavender and peach flowers from mid summer to autumn. When the flowers are pollinated, they produce long, green bean pods. In mild climates, the foliage is evergreen. Be sure to plant near a pillar, archway or trellis, somewhere where the beautiful, fragrant flowers can be enjoyed!
