Small Climbing Plants For Containers

Muehlenbeckia complexa

5 from 1 customers

Muehlenbeckia complexa, commonly known as Maidenhair Vine, Creeping Wire Vine, or Pohuehue, is a low growing groundcover plant or climbing vine. This NZ native forms a dense mat of wiry, brown stems carrying tiny, green leaves. It grows to 30 cm tall and 2 m wide as a groundcover, but will climb fences, etc, with its twining stems to much larger sizes. Muehlenbeckia complexa makes for an attractive ground cover and will tolerate a reasonable amount of foot traffic. Its climbing nature makes it great for growing on fences or trellises for topiary.

Monstera standleyana albo

Monstera standleyana Albo is a highly sought-after indoor plant owing to its amazing foliage. It produces leaves that are variegated dark green and cream, and held off spreading stems. It can be left to trail or trained to climb a peat post or the like. It typically grows to 20 cm tall and 50 cm in length, but this really depends on how the plant is trained.
