As many people are staying home these days, gardening can be a relaxing home improvement to spend your time! Climbing plants can give your yard an organic and inviting feel and add beautiful ambience.
Here are some of the beautiful climbers we carry at the nursery:
Allamanda: Fastest-growing vine with bright yellow blooms. Great vine to have around a patio or pool but be careful because its seeds are poisonous to humans and animals.
Bougainvillea: This vine is a tropical plant that loves Florida heat and requires full sun to create such vibrant blooms. It will bloom most of the year right up until winter in our zone and climbs quickly!
Bleeding heart: Another tropical vine that thrives with full shade or morning sun. This vine has dark green leaves and clusters of red and white flowers that can be pruned into the shape of your choice.
Carolina jasmine: This vine has a fragrant, yellow bloom and can grow to 25 feet. It blooms in late winter/early spring and thrives in this zone, as long as we don’t have a harsh winter.
Mandevilla: This vine loves the Florida heat, but needs some shade in the hottest part of the day. Also an easy grower, this vine comes in a variety of bright colors.
Confederate jasmine: Easy grower in partial-to-full sun. It grows to be at least 6-feet long and it blooms a small white flower each May.
Passion vine: This vine creates a three-dimensional purple flower that butterflies love! It can grow in full sun or partial shade and up to 25-feet tall.
Flower of the Week: Bougainvillea
