Germination; Sow indoors at any time. Prior to sowing soak seeds overnight in warm water. Drain seeds and place in vermiculite and pop in the fridge for 6 weeks. Then surface sow onto moist, well-drained seed compost. Just cover seeds with soil and keep moist. Ideal temp. 24°C. Germination should begin within a few weeks but can be erratic and take much longer. Once seedlings develop 3-4 leaves transplant to 8cm pots. Grow on for a year before repotting. Can be sown directly in autumn with varying results.

Growing; Best grown under glass in a loam-based compost with added sharp sand. Likes full light but protect from hot sun. Will require a frame on which to climb. Water freely and feed monthly when in growth. Water lightly when at rest. Can be tried outside in a moist but well-drained soil against a warm, half-shaded wall.

Cultivation; Cut back spent flowers and old, dead growth to the base in winter. Tubers will enter dormant in winter. Propagate by seed or division.
