Vines are amazing multi-taskers in the landscape and they don’t need much ground.
They can turn a big bland space in to a beautiful blooming canvas with their lush foliage and flowers in every color of the rainbow.
Vining plants soften and add interest to fences or walls, supply shade for patios, and provide screening for privacy or to hide undesirable views. Many vines even attract hummingbirds and butterflies. There is no more versatile plant.
