If you want to enjoy your garden in peace and quiet without being disturbed by nosy neighbours or passers-by, a fence or a wall is often the only option. Unfortunately, privacy screens are often anything but elegant and tend to clash with the otherwise green garden. Fortunately, nature provides a great solution to this problem in the form of climbing plants. Climbing plants wind their way up walls and fences effortlessly and, while doing so, look enchanting with their colourful flowers and green leaves. Ivy is not the only climbing plant you can use to add greenery to walls and fences.

Read on to find out about 10 alternative climbing plants which you can use to spruce up your walls and fences and that are perfect for turning your privacy screen into a thing of beauty.

1. Morning glory

Unlike perennial climbers that often take years to grow to full size, the Mexican morning glory (Ipomoea tricolor) is a fast growing climbing plant. Sown in spring, the vines will be winding elegantly along walls and fences by summer and can reach impressive heights of up to three metres. Climbing morning glory plants are particularly suited to sunny, sheltered locations. In summer, water and fertilise it regularly to ensure an abundance of radiant flowers. The large, trumpet-shaped flowers are gorgeous: when they first emerge, they are pink, and later then change to sky blue with a touch of white and yellow towards the centre – a magnificent display.

2. Sweet pea

For those not only looking for beautiful sight but a lovely scent too, sweet pea (Lathyrus odoratus) is the plant for you. The annual climber is especially vigorous and can grow up to three metres high. From June to August, these climbing sweet pea plants produce lots of delicate flowers in violet, red, pink or white. But the plant is not only a feast for the eyes – the flowers of the sweet pea exude a wonderfully intense fragrance.

Sweet pea climbers prefer a spot in full sun with shelter from the wind as well as regular fertilisation and watering (but make sure to avoid waterlogging). A plant-based fertiliser, such as our Plantura Flower Food, ensures a longer flowering period for sweet peas and other flowering plants. While they make an elegant climbing plant on a fence or wall – sweet peas are also romantic in a bouquet or in a vase.

3. Black-eyed Susan vine

Intensely coloured flowers with a deep black eye in the centre: the flowers of the climbing black-eyed Susan (Thunbergia alata) are very striking. This climber feels most at home in sunny and warm places, and can reach an impressive height of two metres. In addition to its yellow or orange flowers, the black-eyed Susan is loved for its heart-shaped leaves. If given sufficient nutrients and regular watering (but be sure to avoid waterlogging), it will become a spectacular, decorative screen in no time at all.

4. Winter jasmine

While other plants are still dormant early in spring, winter jasmine (Jasminum nudiflorum) is already in full bloom, teeming with small, bright yellow flowers. Depending on the temperature, this spectacle can even take place before Christmas, making climbing winter jasmine undoubtedly one of the most beautiful colourful plants in winter. It retains its flowers until April and even after, this evergreen climber continues to be an ornamental staple in the garden. Its overhanging growth is particularly impressive along walls. Winter jasmine likes to grow in shaded areas. In sunny locations, the flowers are much smaller. Also, winter jasmine requires regular pruning to prevent it from becoming woody and withered.

5. Clematis

Clematis (Clematis) is one of the most fascinating climbing plants in European gardens. It can grow to an incredible height of ten metres! In May and June, the clematis also bears a blanket of delicate flowers that can shine in colours from brilliant white to dark purple, and sometimes, it even exudes a subtle fragrance. There is also a huge range of clematis varieties to choose from. The plant is not a self-climber, but rather a trellis plant: it needs support to grow on walls and fences. The clematis also likes to keep its feet cool – ground cover with a dense carpet of leaves helps create this cool environment and can also form a great visual combination with the elegantly climbing clematis.

6. Boston ivy

Perhaps you do not have a green thumb, but you still want a vibrant privacy screen? Then climbing Boston ivy (Parthenocissus tricuspidata) is just the plant for you. The extremely vigorous self-climber also grows over walls and high fences in record time. Boston ivy is particularly popular as a climbing plant for house facades because it does not need any climbing support but still reaches heights of up to 20 metres. But not only that, it requires hardly any care and is extremely hardy. However, regular pruning is necessary to keep the spreading of the vine in check. Boston ivy is stunning in autumn when its leaves turn scarlet, but the abundant green leaves also provide a charming image in summer. The small yellow flowers seem rather subtle, but are certainly not useless – as a bee-friendly plant, the flowers are a real feast for busy-bees and insects.

7. Climbing hydrangea

Large, white flowerheads against dark green, glossy foliage – the climbing hydrangea (Hydrangea anomala ssp. petiolaris) is a flowering delight. The hydrangea, with its many varieties, is a universally popular garden plant. Both free-standing and climbing, its breath-taking flowers and height of up to 15 metres make the hydrangea a fabulous addition to the garden. But this splendour of flowers is far from high maintenance: in fact, the hydrangea is extremely robust and easy to care for. Only the right location is essential – make sure the soil is neither too chalky nor too compacted. If you put it in the right spot, the hydrangea is perfect for greening walls and fences.

8. Climbing roses

Often when people think of flowering climbers, the first thing that comes to mind is the climbing rose (Rosa hybrids). The queen of flowers has always been one of the most popular plants in garden design and is also perfect for walls and fences. With their leathery dark leaves and lush blossoms, roses create a sight that is as enchanting as it is beautiful. And there is now a great deal of climbing rose varieties. With the right care, climbing roses can reach a height of up to 3.5 metres. But for the climbing rose to thrive, it needs the gardener’s full attention. Make sure to prepare the location of the climbing rose before planting and fertilise your plant regularly. Regular pruning of the climbing rose and good winter protection are also essential to preserve the beauty of the rose for years to come.

9. Firethorn

The firethorn (Pyracantha hybrid) offers a splendour of colour all year round. From May to June, the shrub is covered with beautiful white blossoms, which, from October onwards, can be seen as glowing orange berries. As an evergreen shrub, the firethorn also displays its decorative glossy leaves throughout the seasons. Fortunately, the plant is also extremely easy to care for and very tolerant of pruning. In a light to semi-shady location with loose, nutrient-rich soil, the firethorn feels completely at home. In winter, make sure the firethorn is not exposed to strong, direct winter sun or cold winds.

10. Chinese wisteria

When Chinese wisteria (Wisteria sinensis), also known simply as wisteria, flowers in May, it transforms fences and walls into a sea of blossoms. With its huge panicles of flowers, often in blue, purple, pink or white, it is the unrivalled beauty of any garden. But even after climbing wisteria has finished flowering, it is an attractive garden ornament. In a warm and sunny spot in your garden, this plant will thrive. However, it needs a lot of regular watering, especially in summer. Pruning shears are also a must: prune back your Chinese wisteria regularly for spectacular flowering.

Not only hedges can quickly block unwanted glances. If in the short term you need to quickly curl the fence with a green fence, perennial and annual vines will help. Such plants, as a rule, do not require special care, are unpretentious, they are easy to grow. Fast-growing climbing plants will allow you to quickly get a little privacy in the future garden, close an ugly or too visible fence, an unaesthetic wall.

Before deciding which climbing plants to plant for a fast growing fence, we first need to decide what we expect from them. If the plant should become an integral part of the garden composition, for example, cover the wall of a building or a gazebo, then you should choose from perennial species. But if you need to quickly get a seasonal effect, you can choose varieties of annual plants. Let us consider in more detail the popular types of annual and perennial climbing fast-growing plants, as well as some features of their planting and care.

Fast growing fence vines

Climbing plants are an attractive group, allowing you to create interesting garden or patio arrangements, decorate fences, hedges, arbors. Thanks to them, you can curl problem areas in the garden (for example, close an unsightly fence, house wall or garage), as well as create a green wall that protects us from the eyes of neighbors, create a cozy green corner.

If you plan to create a good effect in one year, it is better to plant the following fast growing loaches:

Below are popular climbing plants for summer cottages, photos and names of varieties.

Buckwheat or Aubert's Fallopia (Fallopia aubertii)

Buckwheat is one of the most vigorous climbing plants in temperate climates. The vine reaches 12 m, grows by 4-6 meters per year. Fallopia Aubert has green leaves, white flowers, small but numerous, which bloom from August to October. The plant makes low demands on the soil. In severe winter it can freeze, but regenerates after pruning. This is a successful climbing plant for decorating fences, covering other fences, ugly buildings, and various massive supports. Buckwheat is used for a gazebo. If the vine seems too strong, it can be cut.

Hop (common hop)

Hop is a fast-growing perennial loach - its stems die off each autumn, and grow again the following season from the underground part. In the spring, quickly, within a few weeks, hops create a wall of green leaves. Hop grows up to 6 meters, grows up to 2-3 meters wide. It can grow in any moderately moist soil in full sun or partial shade.

Clematis

Not much slower than Fallopia Aubert grow some of the clematis, such as Bill Mackenzie. It generates an annual shoot length of up to 5-6 m. This variety of clematis covers the fence in 8-10 weeks. The small, dark green leaves of Clematis Bill Mackenzie remain unchanged in color until early November. From the end of June to the end of October, this plant is covered with yellow flowers, from July - with fluffy seedlings.

The winter cover is represented by dry leaves with seedlings remaining on the shoots.

Clematis are fairly hardy. They love sunny places, well-permeable soils.

Climbing Rose

Climbing Rose is a unique, attractive shrub with many beautiful, lush varieties. Roses will decorate the appearance of small front gardens, large gardens, fences, hedges, arbors.

There are two groups of roses:

  1. Ramblers (Rambler) - similar to wild roses. They grow fast and bloom several times a year. Flowers appear on last year's shoots. The shoots are hard, grow quickly, the coverage is free. Stems grow up to 8 meters.
  2. Climbers (Climbery) reach 5-8 m. They are resistant to diseases, bloom on two-year shoots. The flowers are small, collected in large bouquets. They can climb fences and trees. Bloom for a long time, profusely.

Pruning roses every year, removing old faded shoots and thin, weak branches. To stimulate the plant, cut two-year-old shoots. Some varieties (eg Dorothy Perkins) require cutting of the lower parts. Moisture collects in damp places, making it easier for powdery mildew to set in. Roses are planted on supports - fences, arbors. Roses can also be planted near the walls of the house or trees. For the winter, they cover the root system in bulk. For flowering and healthy growth, it is recommended to use specialized fertilizers for roses. Thorny varieties of roses will help create a thorny hedge that is relevant in garden plots, allowing you to somewhat prevent unwanted guests from entering the site.

Honeysuckle

Among the many varieties of honeysuckle, Pomiranskaya honeysuckle, Tellman's honeysuckle are the most recommended for fences.

  1. Pomeranian honeysuckle (Lonicera pericklamenum) - grows quite quickly (in 2-3 years 2 m, reach up to 4-5 m), beautiful flowers. The colors of the inflorescences are yellow-white, purple-cream, purple-red, yellow inside. Flowers have an intoxicating scent.
  2. Tellman's honeysuckle (Lonicera x Tellmaniana). In early summer it is covered with huge, yellow flowers that do not smell. After 2-3 years, honeysuckle reaches 2-3 m. It can grow up to 6-7 m. Honeysuckle is not demanding to care for. They are best suited for naturalistic plantings. They look artificial in spoiled elegant gardens because they have an informal disheveled shape.

Aristolocha durior

Aristolocha durior is a strong, fast-growing loach with large, bright green leaves. The flowers are inconspicuous, yellow-green-brown, like a swollen tube. The English name for loach is "Dutch trumpet". Since the kirkazon is growing rapidly (after 3 years it grows to 3 meters and reaches 9-10 meters), it is very popular. In a short time, you can achieve the intended effect. Kirkazon is resistant to frost.

If you can wait 2-4 years

If you can wait 2-4 years, good results can be achieved with other climbing plants, for example: reaches a length of tens of meters, is valued for its resistance to air pollution. The flowers are white.

  • Hydrangea (Hydrangea petiolaris) is a popular loach that grows in the shade, most often next to evergreen ivy. Initially, the hydrangea grows slowly, but after 3 years it reaches 3 meters and finally above 15 meters. It is decorative almost all year round. In winter, it has decorative copper scaly stems, fresh light green leaf buds appear in early spring (a sign that winter is over.) The leaves are thick, shiny. The flowers are modest white in the shape of a saucer. Hydrangea is a valuable loach, self-improving, does not need support to rise. The loach does this with aerial roots. Frost resistant.
  • Ornamental grape varieties eg Parthenocissus, Wild Grape, Bird Grape, Aroma Grape, Japanese Grape are fast growing perennial loaches. They are winter-hardy, vigorous, frost-resistant, shoots reach a length of several meters per season.
  • These are fast growing plants that form long stems but branch more slowly.

    Annuals

    A choice of fast-growing annual species of loaches will allow you to change the arrangement of the fence or garden every year. Their advantage is that you don’t have to worry about how to take care of them in winter, trying to protect them from frost, which is sometimes a big problem in the case of perennial vines. In addition, annual shoots grow quite quickly, so you can enjoy a breathtaking effect in a short period of time. The choice of species of annual vines is currently quite large. Some of the plants have ornamental leaves, others have beautiful flowers, and some have beautiful leaves and ornamental flowers.

    Sweet Pea

    Sweet Pea is a climbing plant with a thin vine growing to a height of 1.5 - 2 meters, covered with small, sparsely spaced leaves. It blooms in June-July with fragrant flowers of various colors:

    Requires a sunny location, fertile, fertile, moderately moist soil. May be attacked by mold.

    Curly nasturtium

    Nasturtium is a beautiful flowering loach. Nasturtium produces green stems, large, umbrella-like leaves. Fragrant flowers appear from June to October. Flower colors:

    Requires sunny position, permeable, light, not too fertile soil. Often attacked by aphids, caterpillars.

    Nasturtium's main decorative qualities are large, delightful vines with many flowers and almost round leaves developing at the ends of long thin petioles. In its natural environment (South America), this species grows as a perennial plant, but does not survive in the soil in winter, therefore it is grown as an annual plant. It is usually a long flowering vine growing up to 3 m, but many compact varieties reach a height of 30-40 cm.

    Variations differ in height, color, flower shape, leaf color. An interesting group of varieties is the 'Alaska' variety with white or cream spotted leaves, among which noteworthy are:

    In addition to the original leaves, interesting, almost full or semi-double flowers, which are obtained from varieties:

    Preparing the soil

    Before you sow seeds or buy seedlings, you need to prepare the right place and soil for them. In this case, the individual needs of the selected plant species should be taken into account. The soil must be properly fertilized, which will ensure rapid growth and intensive development of the vine, which absorbs a large amount of nutrients. It should also be noted that creepers need support, so they should be tied up to the fence in a timely manner.

    Care instructions

    All annuals require good care. In inappropriate conditions, they can be attacked by a number of diseases (mainly fungal), pests (aphids, spider mites, caterpillars, snails), so you should constantly monitor their condition.

    If you notice the first symptoms of damage, you should react immediately. If the necessary measures are not taken, pathogenic microorganisms and insects spread rapidly. When growing climbing annuals, mulching is useful for hedges. Mulching prevents the growth of weeds, protects the soil from excessive evaporation, rapid loss of moisture.

Since the trunk and branches of wisteria are quite thick, the crown is thick, and the inflorescences are heavy, this chic beauty needs a reliable, strong support.

    Wisteria grows fast, some varieties can reach a length of 20 meters or more. Planting wisteria is recommended to be done in well-lit places, but protected from strong winds. Liana does not like too acidic soils, as well as too wet, with a high groundwater table. But drought won't help either. Therefore, wisteria should be watered regularly, especially in extreme heat. Some varieties are quite cold hardy. They can tolerate sub-zero temperatures. But still, in regions with harsh winters, it is better to prepare wisteria for the cold. To do this, the root circle is insulated with mulch. And the branches and shoots themselves are covered with agrofiber.

    Wild grapes

    Social networks of florist, gardener Yulia Ermakova

    The name is a bit intimidating. But there is some truth in it. The tree plier is growing very intensively. Clings to any support. Including trunks and branches of neighboring trees. The thickness of its stem also increases rapidly. Therefore, if a tree-plier entangles a young, fragile tree, it may well destroy it. It is important to choose the right neighbors for him. Otherwise, the wood plier is an excellent candidate for decorating a hedge. The length of the vine can reach 20 meters. In summer, it is covered with green foliage, which changes color to bright yellow in autumn. And in September, the wood pliers are covered with orange round-shaped boxes - these are its fruits.

    Kampsis

    Social networks of blogger Yulia Petrova

    This creeper is characterized by interesting bright orange or red flowers, shaped like a gramophone trumpet. Kampsis grows very quickly, so it needs to be trimmed regularly. The length can exceed 10 meters. And it actively gives root shoots and captures new territories. So it is important to keep a close eye on campsis. Liana is very resilient and unpretentious. Tolerates cold well. Grows even on poor soils. A place in the garden for her is better to choose sunny and calm.

    Actinidia

    Social networks of blogger Tatiana Dmitrieva

    Very unusual climbing plant. His calling card is the leaves of bewitching variegated colors. Their edges are painted pink, and at the base the leaves are green. In addition, in late spring and early summer, delicate white flowers with a delicate aroma bloom on Actinidia. For actinidia, it is very important to choose the right landing site. She is more demanding on conditions than some of her "colleagues". Liana does not fit too wet soil, with a high occurrence of groundwater. In this case, you will have to pour the landing site. This plant needs enough light to bear fruit. Therefore, it is recommended to plant it in sunny or semi-shaded places. The soil should be fertile and sufficiently loose. Actinidia does not tolerate prolonged drought, so it is important to water it regularly. With proper care, the vine grows up to 10 meters or more in length. This climbing perennial plant for the fence also has winter-hardy varieties.

    Annual loaches have their own significant advantages. The first is growth rate. You don't have to wait years. Liana will quickly reach its maximum length. And the first flowers will appear in a few weeks. In addition, annuals are suitable for those who love change and do not tolerate monotony. With them, you can change the design of the site every year. An annual hedge may not be as thick and dense as a perennial hedge. But definitely won't get bored.

    Ipomoea

    Social networks of blogger Yulia Polyakova

    Ipomoea is sometimes romantically called the dawn flower. And that's why. Its flowers open only when they are not exposed to direct sunlight. That is, late at night or early in the morning, or in cloudy weather. But the sight of morning glory in bloom is worth the wait. Its funnel-shaped buds are quite large, and can be painted in different colors: from pale white to bright blue. Since this herbaceous vine is an annual, it grows quickly. The length can reach 4-5 meters.

    Ipomoea is recommended to be planted in well-lit areas. The soil needs nutritious, well-moistened, but without an excess of moisture.

    Sweet peas

    Social networks of blogger Natalia Lavrush

    The climbing stems of this herbaceous plant, clinging to the fence, grow up to 2 meters in length. Red, pink, white, blue, purple, burgundy, lilac - sweet pea flowers are distinguished by a huge variety of shades. Due to the very thin stems, the unusual shape of the flowers and the many "antennae", sweet peas look very elegant and airy.

    Plant peas in a sunny, windless place to grow and thrive. You also need to be careful with the soil. Peas do not like high humidity, but they also do not tolerate drought well.

    Curly nasturtium

    Social networks of blogger Lyubov Koshman
