Vines add vertical dimension and beauty to our garden and landscapes, but knowing which one to plant and where to plant it can be tricky.
I share some of my favorite vines that grow well in Arizona, and give growing and planting details for each one.
“Which vines can handle full Arizona sun?”
“Will this vine grow in the shade?”
“Can this vine take the heat from a reflected wall?”
“Could I plant this vine by my pool? Is it messy?”
“When does this vine bloom?”
“Will this vine climb on its own, or does it need a trellis?”
“How big does this vine get?”
Vines are an excellent option for small gardens because they require relatively little space and often provide a large impact. Use vines to create shade, cover bare fences and walls, grow food, attract pollinators, and add beauty to your landscape.

A word to the wise: if you grow cat's claw you WILL need to cut it back to the ground periodically, it's extremely vigorous and will grow over itself leaving a ton of dead mass between the new growth and the surface it's climbing on. If i were to grow it i would cut it all back down to the ground every 3 years or so for maitenance (gives you lots of material for compost)

A beautiful way to display parthenocissus is to have mesh screen be the infill of your metal frame that sits mounted away from the house wall. It can be installed independent of the wall as well. The adhesive pads cling and allow the plant to be perfectly flat to the surface, and the leaves lay as shingles. I have positioned a tall one just off a west facing widow. From inside the house I am able to watch the chameleons come and go seeking the shade. It is pretty from both sides, and offers a unique perspective.

This summer I grew two vines in pots and did well as long as watered thoroughly, coral vine and Mexican flame vine. Neither grew large enough to bloom as I started them late in the season but they did reach the top of the pergola.

[@GrowingInTheGarden]

Bougainvillea, Lilac Vine, Grape Ivy, Lilac Vine. Yellow Butterfly Vine would be my top choices for containers Almost any of the annual vining plants I mentioned would also be good choices for containers. Use as large (at least 10-20 gallons, think half-wine barrel size) a container as possible, fill it all the way with good potting soil, consider adding an oya (growoya.com/?ref=aReoN) and they should be good to go. Know that containers heat up more quickly (and cool down) and require more watering and feeding than plants in the ground. Good luck!

Really enjoyed this video. I live in the Augusta, Georgia area, and I had never heard of some of these vines. My daughter and grandchildren moved to the Paradise Valley, AZ area about 2 years ago, we'll be visiting the first week of May. I cannot wait to see some of these vines growing in Arizona. It gets really hot here in Georgia, so we should be able to grow these same vines, if they can tolerate the humidity. The biggest problem will be finding them at a nursery around here. It seems like all of the area nurseries get the exact same plants in every year. I guess they only order the ones they know will sell well, but it is kind of limiting for the adventurous gardener, and for someone like me who hates to grow the same plants I see in everyone's yard. I absolutely refuse to grow Crepe Myrtle trees even though they are very beautiful, because every yard and business in the Augusta, GA area has Crepe Myrtle trees, so they have become boring to me. I would love to try and grow some of the beautiful flowering vines you mentioned, maybe I can order them online.

I'm not familiar with Lavender Star Flower and Lilac vine, but I know all the other vines she mentioned can take the humidity here in coastal Texas.

This is so helpful! Do you have information or a video about how to make sure you have well draining soil?

[@GrowingInTheGarden]

No, but that's a good idea.

[@eb7713]

I am in Houston and we prep our beds for good drainage by bringing in a good garden soil and pile it up with a brick border for our flowerbeds. Then we add some compost to the top 2 to 3 inches. For larger plants, we dig a hole in our clay soil 2x wider than the rootball, and make sure the soil level of the plant is 4 to 6 higher than the soil level in the ground. Mix your existing soil with a good garden mix and pile it in the hole. Add compost on the top 2 to 3 inches of soil. I hope this makes sense. 😋 Feeding an organic liquid fertilizer once a month will help convert your clay into great soil over time. I use a lot of fish fertilizer or Medina Garrett Juice.

Great info, thank you.. I have an old house downtown Sarasota, FL and want to plant something that will grow on wood siding, vertical. Which plan would you recommend?

[@erikjohnson9223]

Growing vines on wood siding is actually a bad idea, the vines will raise the local humidity and the wood will rot. Parthenocissus (Virginia creeper), Campsis radicans, and I believe climbing Hydrangeas will climb directly up the wall (without needing a trellis) using suction-pad tendrils (Parthenocissus) or aerial roots (as will dragonfruit, if you want something nocturnal, though I am not sure it is hardy enough for Sarasota), but the siding will rot. I think a building is more expensive than a vine, and you might want to prioritize its lifespan.

If it was a large enough container in the shade, maybe? Containers heat up more than in ground beds.

[@susancruz729]

Foundations in hot dry climates actually require irrigation to keep the dry soil from shrinking back and causing a place for water to flow. You do need a rather large pot. 25 gallon would not be too big.

[@GrowingInTheGarden]

Best chance for planting passion fruit is probably in the spring after frost. I have to use a ladder to deadhead the arch roses. I haven't had any luck with scarlet runner bean. When do you plant yours?

[@michaelagibbs9695]

@@GrowingInTheGarden I plant them in spring, they need a large trellis. I grew them on a 5ft trellis and they grew to the top of it then and fell forward and were nearly touching the ground.

[@erikjohnson9223]

Scarlet Runner bean has the reputation of hating heat. What climate are you in? If you are in a cooler summer area like northern CA, you should plant high altitude Passiflora (like P. mollisima from the Andes) instead of her P. edulis (?) or the (z6, occasionally z5b) hardy, eastern USA native Passiflora incarnata. In general plant in early to mid spring, so heat doesn't kill plants with undeveloped root systems. Fall is also cool, but it you have frost, plants will survive it better if they have big root systems, and that takes time.
