climbing plants with flowers
Looking to add vertical interest and vibrant colour to your garden? Climbing plants with flowers are the perfect solution. Whether you want to soften a fence, brighten up a pergola, or cover an unsightly wall, these versatile plants deliver spectacular blooms, lush foliage, and essential habitat for pollinators. In New Zealand gardens, choosing flowering climbers means you enjoy an ever-changing display—and with so many options, it’s easy to find a variety suited to your space, style, and level of experience.
Phaedranthus buccinatorius (Mexican Blood Flower)
Phaedranthus buccinatorius, commonly known as the Mexican Blood Flower, is a stunning tropical climber. It features showy and fragrant, trumpet shaped, yellow and red flowers from summer until early winter. These sit perfectly with the glossy, dark green foliage. It will grow vigorously to 5 m tall but can be trimmed as necessary. Phaedranthus buccinatorius is a popular choice for tropical plantings or using in areas where frost risk is low and the beauty of this plant can be enjoyed.
Rose Albertine
Rose Albertine is a climbing rose featuring very showy, salmon-pink flowers. The highly fragrant blooms emerge in spring and continue until autumn provided the spent flowers are removed. The foliage comprises small-sized, dark green leaves which provide a lovely backdrop to the flowers. Rose Albertine is commonly trained onto a trellis in a courtyard or cottage garden, planted to lavish a fence, or included anywhere the beauty and fragrance can be appreciated.
