From fragrant flowers to edible fruits, there's a wide variety of plants to choose from for both sunny and shady walls.Non-Invasive Climbing Plants for Home GardensHere are some excellent options for non-invasive climbing plants:1. Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) – An evergreen with fragrant, beautiful flowers. Known as Woodbine in the UK, it needs support to climb but adds a lovely scent to the garden.2. Mandevilla – Available in white (Laksa) and pink (Sandereae) varieties, this tropical climber has large, beautiful flowers that require support.3. Climbing Roses – Banksia roses (an Australian variety) are evergreen, producing yellow or white blooms. Climbing roses are ideal for vertical structures and add charm to any garden.4. Clematis – These climbers come in various colors and are perfect for trellises or fences, offering vibrant blooms in spring and summer.5. Climbing Hydrangea (Hydrangea petiolaris) – Excellent for shaded walls, this climber produces creamy white flowers and lush foliage.6. Star Jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides) – Thriving in shaded conditions, Star Jasmine is an evergreen climber with fragrant white flowers.7.

Tie them back to supports as needed.- Support: Install a strong structure (trellis, wall, or fence) for the plants to climb on, helping them grow in the right direction.- Soil and Climate Considerations: Choose plants based on the soil type and climate in your area. Figs, apples, and citrus prefer sun, while Hydrangeas and Star Jasmine do well in the shade.- Managing Growth: Vigorous climbers like Virginia Creeper and Wisteria need consistent pruning to prevent overgrowth.Additional Tips and Considerations- Edible Climbing Plants: For a vertical garden that’s both functional and beautiful, consider edible plants like passion fruit, gooseberries, or strawberries. These plants produce fruits and flowers but can attract pests like birds and possums.- Vertical Gardens: PhytoGreen offers a high-end vertical garden system that uses organic blocks filled with plants.
