Everything I have seen and read about the trumpet vine (bignoniaceous plant
of the genus Campsis) says that is requires FULL sun. I want something for
shade. Why did you recommend this plant? I am curious.

Any suggestions for some climbing vine-type plants (flowering) that like

to
be shady? I have a shady front porch with railings that would look great
some climbers. I thought of Morning Glory -- would that work? Any

others?

(I'm in Zone 5, Cleveland OH)

Trumpet Vine!


I'm not the one who suggested trumpet vine, but I live in Cleveland & I
only see it growing here in full sun. We've done well with honey suckle
in a shady area. Morning Glory also needs a lot of sun.
