    Please could anyone shed any light on the name of this climber purchased in Cornwall from a bargain corner in a garden centre with no identification tags. Thank you [​IMG]

    Looks a bit like ipomoea indica.

    Does it flower, and where was the picture taken.

    Hi, we're in West Yorkshire. It does flower but they are tiny white flowers. The leaves are also tiny, not sure that comes across in the pictures. Each leaf is no more than 1cm in length
