What is a good plant for a flower bed that will climb the wall or grow up the wall...?

I want to use about an 7-9 foot space between two windows. The area gets plenty of sun, but not too much.

What is a good plant for a flower bed that will climb the wall or grow up the wall...?
I like Carolina Jasmine very much.


Also, Passion flowers
Reply:I think a good climber is the Wistera and the potato vine and Passion flower i love the Carolina Jessamine but be careful this plant is poisonous and not many people know that yet. Report It

Reply:English Ivy or Mandevilla will look good.
Reply:Wisteria is a good climber and pretty.
Reply:Snow In Summer is a perennial, it is beautiful and will grow any place. Has beautiful white flowers grows all summer. And will grow anywhere.
Reply:i think for climbing the wall the best which i have in my garden is %26#039;bouegenvillia%26#039;.and if u live in the place which is mainly desert like dubai or [arizona usa]u should put fertillizer in it in every 2 months. put water daily in it .
Reply:A Jasmine creeper.
Reply:English ivy is attractive as a backround for the flower bed. Or try clematis. It blooms all summer long, profusely. When planting it, this one likes sun, but its lower region where planted shaded. So you would put some other plant in front of it to shade its roots.
Reply:Jasmine Ivy will defintely be the choice.
Reply:Morning glory vines, cardinal creeper, and sweet potato vines have all treated me well. They all grow pretty vigorously and would fill in the area quickly.

Any of various ornamental, mostly climbing plants of the genus Clematis, native chiefly to northern temperate regions and having showy, variously colored flowers or decorative fruit clusters.





Plant Characteristics





Clematis (KLEM-a-tis) is a member of the Ranunculaceae (buttercup) family. The word is from the Greek and means %26quot;vine.%26quot; This genus includes approximately 250 species and numerous garden hybrids. It is a varied genus, made up of mostly woody, deciduous climbing plants, though a few are evergreen and a few herbaceous. There is great variety in flower form, color, bloom season, foliage effect and plant height. Leaves are opposite on the stem and mostly compound with three to five leaflets. The leaf stalk twines like a tendril and is responsible for giving the plant support. The flowers are showy, having four (sometimes five to eight) petal-like sepals (no true petals) in numerous colors and shades. There are three general flower forms: small white flowers in panicles or loose and irregular spreading clusters; bell or urn-shaped flowers; and flat or open flowers. The fruit is often showy as well, being a ball shaped, %26quot;feathered%26quot; structure. Clematis are hardy plants (many are hardy to USDA zone 3) and can survive for 25 years or more. The large-flowered hybrids may have blooms ranging from four to ten inches in diameter and as many as 100 blooms per plant in a season. The species types have blooms ranging from one-half to three inches in diameter with diverse shapes and habit; many of the species have fragrant blooms, which is not true of most hybrids. The one fault of clematis is that they are not attractive during winter, when they are a tangle of bare stems.
Reply:How about the Sweet Pea perennial? They have pretty flowers in a variety of colors and smell nice, too!
