PeterS - the Gloriosa is late IMO. I used to get them in bloom by the end of May/early June in the conservatory at my old house.

I'll try to remember to save some Rhodochiton seeds for you.

Cobaea scandens like the rather better C pringlei is a late season flowerer (well it is for me!)

Some more climbers recently come into flower

I love the scent from the Marsdenia

But its no where near as strong as the scent from Mandevilla laxa

Shame the more tropical sorts don't have a scent
