Bower of Beauty is not a separate cultivar on the evidence of the references read: it is a common name of the straight species Pandorea jasminoides, the native bower vine. The Australian National Botanic Gardens (ANBG), the Australian Plants Society NSW and the Australian Native Plants Society (ANPSA) all give it as the species' common name. HortFlora (Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria) notes that the name is sometimes used as a cultivar name, but describes no form under it.

Growing bower of beauty

The references read treat Bower of Beauty as the straight species, so the notes on sun, soil, frost, pruning and roots on the bower vine page are the ones to follow for it. Only one reference read describes the plant under this name: the Grow Me Instead entry of Nursery and Garden Industry Australia, which has it climbing or spreading as a shrub, with glossy, dark green pinnate leaves, and gives its flowers as pink with a dark carmine throat, held in clusters at the branch ends through the warmer months. No reference read gives this name a size, a habit or a flower of its own beyond that entry.

What to check before you buy

Compare listings of Bower of Beauty, bower vine and plain Pandorea jasminoides as one species, reading each description rather than the name, since HortFlora notes that the name is sometimes used as a cultivar name. Named colour forms are listed under their own names; the species page covers them. Growers also list Bower of Beauty on hoops, and the table above shows the sizes growers list under this name. For what to check in a pot, see the HortOS guide to judging nursery plant quality. Stock moving between states travels under the state and territory biosecurity rules.
