Shrubby bindweed is a Mediterranean evergreen spreading shrub with silvery narrow oblong leaves, and trumpet-shaped white flowers from pink-tinged buds
Flowering
From Early Summer TO Mid Autumn
Convolvulus flower from early Summer all through Summer and into Autumn
Propagating by seed in Spring
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
Sow seed in well-draining soil in full sun. These plants will trail well, so can be sown in seed-compost and seedlings planted out into hanging-baskets, or pots where they can trail over the edge of the pot.
Propagating by seed in Autumn
From Early Autumn TO Mid Autumn
Sow seed under glass in Autumn for flowers in early Summer the following year
Planting
From Mid Spring TO Late Spring
Plant out seedlings that have been grown in seed-trays (after hardening off, if grown in a greenhouse, or indoors) into a sunny site in well-draining soil
