Many people love Rozanne for her amazingly long and abundant flowering period; but others complain that she is too randy, rambling all over her companions. Myself, I cherish her.
I have her planted right outside my kitchen window where i look out at a small raised garden vignette that I have designed for multi season interest. A waterfall points away from my window, and Rozanne is situated at the top of it , growing next to and over a hakonechloa aurea and onto a 12' hinoki cypress, chamaecyparis obtusa, which she then rambles up for 3 or 4'. This climbing habit indicates to me that ,in a border garden, she might be able to cover a short obelisk or toutoir with a mass of continual bloom through the summer.If her foliage is not enough to fill the form, she could be grown up the form with another more leafy plant/vine, such as a short clematis.(The newer yellow leaved clem, 'Stolwijk Gold', would make a pretty contrast with the blue purple of Rozanne' flowers.) |

| One of my favorite, very long interest combos, is Rozeanne climbing into Caryopteris 'Snow Fairy' and Malva alcea fastigiata. Boy oh boy! |
