5 Showy Vines to Plant This Fall for a Colorful Florida Winter
🌿💐 5 Showy Vines to Plant This Fall for a Colorful Florida Winter
Trees and shrubs aren't the only plants putting on a show as Florida cools down.
Some of our tropical vines seem to wake up when fall arrives, covering fences, arches and trellises with flowers.
From clouds of pink and lavender to giant bizarre blooms and fiery red, these five can turn an ordinary structure into one of the brightest spots in the winter garden.
- 🌸 Antigonon leptopus - Mexican Coral Vine
This vigorous vine produces masses of bright pink flowers that practically buzz with bees and other pollinators. Give it something to climb and it can quickly turn a plain fence or trellis into a wall of color. 👉 More - 🌸 Aristolochia gigantea - Giant Pelican Flower
If you like weird plants, this one is irresistible. Enormous patterned flowers hang from the vine like exotic fabric, with dramatic burgundy, cream and purple markings. One bloom is enough to stop people in their tracks. 👉 More - 🌸 Mansoa alliacea - Garlic Vine
Don't let the name fool you. The leaves smell like garlic when crushed, but the flowers are beautiful clusters of lavender-purple trumpets. A heavy bloom can cover the vine in color, with flowers gradually fading to paler lavender. 👉 More - 🌸 Petrea volubilis - Queen's Wreath
Think tropical wisteria. Long cascades of lavender-purple stars spill from the vine in spectacular clusters, creating one of the prettiest flowering displays of the cool season. Even after the petals fall, the star-shaped calyces keep the show going. 👉 More - 🌸 Senecio confusus Sao Paulo - Mexican Flame Vine
This one brings the fire. Brilliant orange-red daisy-like flowers appear in masses against deep green foliage, creating exactly the warm color you want on a cool winter day. Let it climb a fence or arbor and it can become a living wall of flowers. 👉 More
