Millettia japonica 'Satsuma' Hedge 'Elsrijk' will grow on mostDespite its common name, this semi evergreen climber, native to South Eastern Asia, isn't a wisteria, but does indeed display similar habit. It has a spectacular flowering, bearing large panicles of purple, scented flowers from June into early Autumn. Does well in a planter or trained on a trellis pergola. May drop leaves in sub zero temperatures. H3
