Vines have a trailing growth pattern and spread by creeping and climbing their surroundings. Vines usually require some structure on which to grown and are often found climbing arbors, fences, buildings and lattices.

Clematis looks great trailing up a fencepost, wisteria can create a magical archway, and a window rimmed with Boston ivy is charming at any time of year. Vines drape over and soften structures in the garden. Choose a flowering, deciduous variety for seasonal interest.
