Pileostegia viburnoides
Pileostegia viburnoides is a slow-growing, self-clinging evergreen climber from India and eastern Asia, reaching about 6 m (20 ft), with creamy white flowers in late summer. It grows best given moist, well-drained soil and some shade, and it needs patience since it establishes slowly.
Pileostegia viburnoides, a climbing plant related to the hydrangea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Hydrangeaceae, native to India and eastern Asia. It is a slow-growing, self-clinging, evergreen climber eventually growing to 6 m (20 ft) in length, with long narrow leaves and dense panicles of creamy white flowers in late summer.
The specific epithet viburnoides means "like a viburnum", though viburnums belong to a different family of plants.
