shade vine

Lake Toxaway, NC(Zone 7a)

Is there a good vine that blooms in the shade? Maybe something evergreen? I have a little fence (short, about 4-1/2 feet tall) with nothing on it.

Oh, yes! Sweet autumn clematis - fragrant, blooms a long time and stays evergreen - LOVE this vine!

Yes - I have two vines - one in afternoon sun and one in total shade - they are both beginning to bloom now.

wonderful! We have a little of that growing wild on the property and maybe we can transplant some of it to the empty fence.

It's easy to transplant - just be sure to get all the big tap root you can, and keep it moist for a couple of weeks until it roots into the soil.
