Plant Type: Climbers

Climbers, also known as vines, are plants with long, flexible stems that naturally seek to grow upwards by attaching to or twining around supporting structures. They are excellent for adding vertical interest to gardens, covering walls, fences, trellises, arbors, or pergolas. Climbers use various methods to ascend, including tendrils, twining stems, adhesive pads, or clinging stem roots. They can be woody or herbaceous, evergreen or deciduous, and many offer spectacular floral displays or attractive foliage. When choosing a climber, consider its growth habit, how it climbs (to ensure you provide the right support), its mature size, and its light requirements. They are a fantastic way to maximize garden space and create a sense of lushness.
