Suggest me a vine

[Hamad]

AOA to all
I hope 2013 will bring some positive changes to our gardens which will evantually bring positive energy to ourselves and InshAllah soon we will have a nice spring full of flowers

Suggest me a vine that could be successful in west direction where I receive little or no sun in winter and in summer it receive blazing sun from afternoon till late evening, the vine shouldn't be too vigorous and flower profusely in its flowering period

Looking forward for your positive participation thanks

Tricky question since the since your sunlight conditions are mutually exclusive :-( Do you have trumpet vine (Campsis randicans)? Flowers profusely. It will do very well in summer, but in the winter it will die back temporarily. The advantage will be that you be able to grow something else in the winter.

Blooms frequently and profusely, grows fast, easy to grow from tip cuttings, dies without your knowing why, I LOVE IT.
Yours for the asking.

The vine Arif sb suggested is Senecio confusus. But the only drawback in my experience is that this vine suddenly wilts/leaf burn black in just one day if it doesn't get enough water on hot days...so the soil should always be moist. Sorry no experience with rose vines...but roses like direct sunlight as well in winter. And you said that you will not have sunlight in that area.

Mardan Rose vine white flowers also look good. Not very common, can be seen in Islamabad along roads, probably also on 7th Avenue. Sorry dont have a picture, though I have planted three last year.

Try Petrea volubilis flowers profusely easy to propagate very hard to kill

[Munir]

I ve looked up the internet for pictures & the common urdu/local name of the vine suggested by you. It looks beutiful : I want to plant one, but could not find the local name, with which it could be asked from the local nurseries. Can you please advise .

[Hamad]

thank you Farooq, Arif sb, Munir and Ahmed sb InshAllah I will try to find the best suitable out of your suggested vines and will update you

Asalam-U-Alaikum
