Best Climbing Plants on Real World Gardener
Manage episode 329292727 series 2360070
This design series is about plants that are categorised as non-general lines.
Every week I’ve been saying that were talking about plants that you won’t necessarily find in your big box store or possibly even in your nursery so you may have to search for them.
These plants are so worthwhile that because they provide year round interest with their foliage colour, texture and contrast, not just their flowers.
Today perhaps some climbers fit the bill
Don’t be put off if you live in a different climate because often plants adapt to a variety of climatic conditions and are worth a try.
Peter mentioned these climbers
- Hoya carnosa Conomorpha fragrans often called climbing frangipani although it has nothing to do with the frangipani genus-Plumeria. The flower does look similar to the frangipani flower and are highly scented.
- vigorous habit requiring a solid support
- in cooler areas plant against a north facing wide. Deciduous in cold areas.
- Dombeya ianthotrycha (tropical garden society of Sydney)-a winter flowering climber with large paper thin leaves. Flower colour is a muted red with a hint of orange. Can be trained as an espalier or a bun shaped shrub.
- Hoya carnosa or wax flower, better in pots with specialised potting mix. If planting in the ground, must have well drained soil.
- TIP: don't cut those flowering spurs off - this
