I am looking at planting this in my garden in memory of my cat 'alice', but I am not a keen gardener and wondered if this was an easy plant to grow. I would hate it to die!!

I'm almost certain this will not survive outdoors in winter, the one I had in my open porch didn't. For this purpose you really need something that you can be sure is hardy otherwise it will cause you even more sadness.

This is a tropical climber, Kalin and needs a minimum temperature of 7-10 degrees centigrade so not good for your garden. Perhaps you'd better think of something else.

I would agree with Lily this is a tropical plant and will not survive outdoors overwinter.

Snap Wagger we were posting at the same time lol

Are you looking for plants called 'Alice' in memory of your cat Kalin? If so Penstemon 'Alice Hindley' pretty pink and there's a rose called 'Miss Alice' very pretty pink.

If you particularly want a climber, have a look at Trachleospermum jasminoides - fragrant flowers, evergreen, hardy, well behaved.

Three at once, Lily & MG - can't do better than that, can we? hehe

nope :-)

Why not plant Catnip (Nepeta)?

Three at once is good as long as we all say the same thing Wagger!!

Safety in numbers, Lily - lol.
