About

Pandorea is one of Australia's most beautiful and reliable native climbing plants — and one of the most underused. For gardeners who need fast, dense coverage on a trellis, fence, or pergola but want something more romantic and ornamental than plain screening foliage, Pandorea delivers the ideal combination: glossy, dark evergreen leaves, masses of elegant trumpet-shaped flowers from spring through to autumn, and a genuinely vigorous climbing habit that establishes rapidly and covers large structures with minimal intervention. The genus Pandorea belongs to the Bignoniaceae family — the same botanical family as the spectacular Jacaranda and Trumpet Vine (Campsis) — and its flowers have the unmistakable trumpet-flared form that characterises this family. All Pandorea species are native to Australia (primarily eastern Australia) and parts of South-East Asia, and all have evolved to climb through forest edges and shrubs using their twining stems and pinnate leaves to reach the light. In the garden, they translate this natural behaviour into rapid, productive coverage of any suitable support structure. Our collection of seven Pandorea varieties represents the two main garden species: Pandorea jasminoides (Bower of Beauty / Bower Vine) and Pandorea pandorana (Wonga Wonga Vine). These two species have notably different flower forms and scales — jasminoides produces large, showy individual trumpet flowers in pink or white; pandorana produces masses of smaller tubular flowers in creamy-white, golden, or white tones that collectively create a spectacular display. Understanding this distinction helps choose the right Pandorea for your purpose. Pandorea jasminoides vs Pandorea pandorana — which should you choose? Our horticultural team describes the choice between the two species as the difference between 'jewellery and wallpaper' — both are beautiful, but they create quite different visual effects. Pandorea jasminoides (Bower Vine) produces individual large trumpet flowers in
