Large Bindweed
Calystegia silvatica subsp. disjuncta
Overview
Large Bindweed (Calystegia silvatica subsp. disjuncta) is a perennial, deciduous climber native to Europe. It forms long creeping stems that wind their way up trellises and posts, with light green divided leaves and large trumpet-shaped white or pink flowers. The flowers are followed by cup-shaped seed capsules. It is perfect for providing height and colour to walls or trellises in sunny, sheltered gardens. It prefers moist, well-drained soil with plenty of organic matter and can spread quickly, so ensure it is contained by a root barrier or buried pot if planting in the border.
