Vines

Vines are plants the climb or trail, sometimes twining around a support or clambering up by means of holdfasts or, like climbing roses, with the help of their thorns or branches. Hydrangea petiolaris, or climbing Hydrangea uses holdfasts and aerial roots, like ivies etc. while a vine like Wisteris sinensis or morning glory, Ipomoea spp., will twine around a support.

Vines add vertical interest to a design and texture by weaving color and foliage through upright supports, whether trees, trellises, or any number of things that vines can use to climb and clamber upward toward the sun.
