distribution_en:
description_en: Genus of 7 species of rhizomatous, climbing or scrambling, woody-based perennials found in moist habitats in temperate regions in the N. hemisphere. They have simple, entire, alternate, triangular or narrowly to broadly ovate leaves. In late summer, they produce large panicles of small, funnel-shaped, white, greenish white, or pinkish white flowers. Climbing species are ideal for training on pergolas and deciduous trees, and for covering unsightly structures. F. aubertii and F. baldschuanica are frequently rampant, and may be difficult to control; the two species are often confused and may be represented in gardens by hybrids between them.
hardiness_en: Fully hardy.
cultivation_en:
propagation_en: Sow seed in containers in a cold frame in spring, or as soon as ripe. Take heeled, semi-ripe cuttings in summer, hardwood cuttings in autumn.
pests_en: Leaf miners can be a problem.
