| Description | An extremely rare selection of Japanese hydrangea vine chosen for foliage that nearly shimmers, its heart-shaped leaves highlighted with vivid splashes of creamy white. Often accented with white, lace-cap hydrangea-like blooms in summer, this self-clinging vine makes a dramatic statement by virtue of its foliage alone. Deciduous. |

| History | This fantastic and unusual plant was shared with Dan Hinkley from Gotemba Nursery in 2000, though he had first seen it and fell under its charms in 1995. "I think it's a sensational plant... great foliage all summer as well as a season of flowers. The vividness of the variegation is what I find extraordinary. There's nothing wishy-washy about it at all." - Daniel J. Hinkley |
