I want a climber whats green all yr round.?
You can get some clematis that are evergreen also some jasmine I think too .............
Reply:I love roses so I would choose a climbing rose, provided it gets enough sun light.



Here's a link to the rose emporium, this is where most of my roses come from. (I was never good with roses until I started buying from them, lol.) You can view the different climbers that appeal to you and then click on the name to view the picture.
Reply:Ivy is an obvious choice. You can get variegated varieties. Mature plants have flowers and berries that provide food for the birds. Be warned though: it clings on to the wall or fence with small 'roots' and if you ever decide to get rid of it you'll find it very difficult to remove all traces of it from whatever it's been growing up.
Reply:there are some types of ivy that have whit %26amp; purple flowers in summer %26amp; stay green in winter
Reply:Star jasmine [Trachelospermum sp.] is an absolutely magnificent, woody, evergreen climber - and a bit unusual in the UK as well. It has extremely fragrant small white (unsurprisingly star-shaped) flowers in late summer. Depending on what website you read it is either hardy, or not (yes helpful I know), but I think unless you are in an area with severe frosts and you're after something a little different its well worth a punt!



Their only drawback is they have sticky white sap.
Reply:ivy is evergreen and you can get lots of different varigations
Reply:ivy
Reply:There are several varieties of evergreen clematis to choose from. One reliable variety is Clematis Armandii, which grows quickly, produces slightly fragrant, white flowers in Spring and stays evergreen. It is also easy to maintain as it requires little or no pruning, depending how much spread you require. It seems to grow in any soil, but does need some sun, so is not suitable for a shaded area.



I have one of these, scrambling over my fence and shed roof and reaching up into an oak tree. It is just starting to flower and looks gorgeous.
Reply:it depends on your zone. but here are some evergreen vines for zone 7:

carolina jessamine (double shot) - blooms spring and fall

tangerine crossvine

banks rose - white or yellow

avalanche clematis

armandii clematis or evergreen clematis

-just recently i have heard of an evergreen wisteria as well

-roses are not evergreen in my location they will lose foliage in winter except for banks rose

- a vine that stays green but will NOT flower is jackson vine(smilax)

in more tropical areas things like mandevilla and pandorea vine will stay green in winter.
Reply:Hi! What about Lady Banks Roses They flower once in the spring or Cecil Bruner Roses, They are fast growing and flower for quite awhile
Reply:A few evergreen climbers to get you started are,-

Euonymus fortunei radicans (variegatus)

Hydrangea petiolaris

Hedra (the ivies of which there are many beutifull specimens).

Jasminum nudiflorum

Passiflora edulis.

There are also many climbing roses which again are evergreen. But why don't you plant 2 or 3 together so you can have flowers almost all year round. Try a nice climbing rose, Rosa climbing iceberg and Clematis ernest markham and then for the winter you could include Jasminum nudiflorum which has lovely cheerfull yellow flowers through out the winter.

Reply:Jasmine is good, and gives some nice blooms, but can get very overgrown very quickly in the summer
