This is a very late addition to your comment, but I was wondering whether Clytemnestra repeats well in Z10? I see references to some of the hybrid musks being effectively once-blooming in hot summer/low winter chill climates. I'm looking for a small, well-scented climber that can take a little shade in z9a, Sunset z12.
Thanks again so much. I've decided the space is small enough to be safer with a miniature climber (I don't want to overwhelm nearby plants). But Renae is definitely going on my wish list as I have plenty of other spots for full-size climbers here. Thanks for bringing her to my attention as I was completely unfamiliar with her!
Be careful. Miniature flowers don’t necessarily mean miniature plant size. Ask me how I know ;-) I grow Renae as well, and I would consider it one of my more restrained climbers.
Pretty, small flowers that have curling petals causing a "quilled" look. The scent is sweet and musky; it wafts very nicely. Bush is delicate looking (at this point; it's only a couple of years old) and sprawling in nature.
