survive north of zone 8. They are traditionally used on
arbors and pergolas. Vanilla trumpet vines have a rich

choking out weeds as it grows. The distinctive fragrance

Clematis is a great choice for an area with moist soil and a
little afternoon shade. Use them to cover a roof, on lamp
posts, and to cover a bank. If you have shrubs such as
forsythia that don't offer much interest in mid-summer,
plant a few clematis vines to fill the branches with color
during the summer months.

Climbing roses grow quickly and look elegant on a wall or
fence. They have stiff, arching stems and dense foliage that
makes the perfect backdrop for the flowers. Many are
scented, and some have flowers that bloom in clusters.

garden.
