Slightly ruffled flowers; strong lavender pink, with black veins and a brown blotch with some white and red on the upper petals. Probably not the same plant as that described in Winstone, New Zealand, 1973, as being nearest to blue.
A scandent shrub with gray hairy pinnate leaves and flowers that have red upper petals slightly streaked with white, pure white lower petals and an almost black central blotch. 'Splendide' is best grown in a greenhouse or conservatory, but can be grown outside if protected from rain and temperatures below 40 degrees F. Prune carefully and water sparingly. It is a glorious sight when in full flower. 24" wide x 12" high.
