Our collection from one of the highest points in the Wumingshan during the Chongqing-Guizhou-Guangxi Expedition in the fall of 2010. We had reached as far as we could on the trail following the western ridge and as we paused to take in one last panoramic view of the lesser peaks arrayed before us, we looked down and there sprawling atop the scrub was this climbing Monkshood. Seed heads were larger than we expected and it has been with anticipation that we have waited for this to bloom which a few did this fall. The flowers are of good size with a bit of variation from soft lavender to mostly a very pleasant medium blue. One seedling is a strange double with the overlapping petals reduced to an Elizabethan collar around the business parts. Now there's a collector's plant! Let us know if yours turns out to be something unique and we'll dicker. Perennial herbaceous vine to 8'-12' dying back in late fall. These are flowering size.
