A Japanese variety, showered at the beginning of summer with abundance of star-shaped flowers, 6-8 cm in diameter, with 4-6 wide elliptical sepals, pointed and frayed at the edges, curling underneath at the top. The upper side of the sepals is white and tinged with pink, especially in the middle and top part. Underneath they are white with purple-pink middle veins. Yellow anthers on green filaments. Flowers are borne abundantly in June-July and more moderately in August – September. Simple or composed of 3-5 leaflets leaves are light- green, lustreless, smooth. Reaches 2,5 m height. Attaches itself to the support by means of twining leaf petioles. Suitable for growing along fences, arbours, pergolas and other high garden supports, such as trellises and poles. Prefers warm, sunny sites. Looks lovely when climbing over small trees or shrubs, both deciduous and coniferous. Particularly attractive when displayed against dark background.
