Evergreen climbers offer a 365 day display across your walls, trellis or pergola. From the unusual and delightful bluebell creeper to classic and concealing foliage ivy, there’s lots of lovely varieties to choose from. But before making your choice, check your aspect to see the amount of light that your climber will receive. Not all evergreen climbers prosper in the shade. Here, we answer some frequently asked questions to help you narrow down your choice.
A fantastic group of evergreen climbers for deep shade are the climbing hydrangeas. They’re self attaching too so won’t need any tieing in. If your shady site sees a bit of sun during the day, opt for a gorgeous trachelospermum. These jasmine-like evergreen climbers punch above their weight in terms of scent and flower power.
For a fast growing evergreen climber, go for a clematis like the super scented winter bloomer armandii or summer blooming montana. These varieties show tremendous vigour. Another fast-growing option is honeysuckle. This evergreen climber sends up vigorous shoots in spring, covering a trellis in no time, and has delicate scented summer blooms popular with pollinators.
Cover a wall using a self-attaching evergreen climber. These climbers will pull themselves up the wall needing no trellis or tieing in. Excellent flowering examples are found in the varied climbing hydrangeas. Don’t forget hedera helix (English ivy), it’s a perfect option to cover a shaded wall with a thick green screen.
Arches and arbours provide the perfect opportunity to add scent to the garden. For a winter arbour, choose a climber like a clematis armandii for superb scent early in the year. Otherwise, a fabulous honeysuckle fits the bill for an arch, lending a cottage garden feel to any garden.
Evergreen climbers that feature sensational perfumes include the trachelospermum cultivars with their lovely jasmine-like flowers and the classic climbing honeysuckle. Make sure you plant these powerhouses over a walkway or covering a doorway arch to enjoy their scent on the breeze every time you enter the garden.
