C.' Nelly Moser' is better without too much sun because the sun will bleach out the beautiful coloring of the flowers quickly. I have mine growing on a trellis on the north side of my house where it gets very little sun. The blooms keep their bright colors very nicely. My sister has her's in full sun all day. Her blooms show the proper coloring only when they first open, then quickly fade to white with the slightest pale pink bar, a very washed-out appearance.
I also like C.'The President'. The flowers are huge and mine were dark purple/navy blue in color, but if I didn't keep it pruned back yearly it only bloomed at the very top of the vine (a very high one, too!) where I couldn't see them to their best advantage.
