Radermachera ‘Summerscent®’ 180MM

Radermachera gigantea 'Summerscent' TM

I am Radermachera ‘Summerscent®’. My family originated from Thailand.

Habit Shrub - Fragrant large blooms

Plant family Bignoniaceae

Beautiful, adaptable, fragrant with lush dense foliage I am a very useful plant in the garden and will even perform well indoors in a well-lit location. My clusters of bell shaped blooms are a pale pink with golden throats. My vigorous growth and naturally dense habit suit me to screening and hedging. Long flowering my blooms produce a delicate sweet scent. I am drought tolerant once established and cope with light frost. I respond well to being pruning to shape but naturally develop a compact rounded form left unpruned.
