Often blooms again in the fall. Seed pods have a papery butterfly-like appearance, giving this vine its name. Use on a trellis or as a mounding shrub or sprawling ground cover.

Fast-growing vine that reaches 10-12 feet high. It produces clusters of bright yellow flowers from spring to frost. While many other plants are touted as spring-to-frost bloomers, this one is the real deal.

Gelsemium sempervirens - Carolina jessamine is one of the most beautiful vines of the South. It covers fences and trees in open woodlands and along roadsides throughout the Southeast with its slender vines and bright yellow flowers.

Carolina jessamine is easy to grow. It is attractive on an arbor where the slender branches hung with yellow flowers can be seen from below. This plant will stay in scale and can be used on decks or porches and near patios and entryways. It is good in containers and as a ground cover along steep banks to help control erosion.

All parts of this plant are very poisonous. The sap may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals. Children can be poisoned by sucking the nectar from the flowers.

Mandevilla spp. - Elevate color in your landscape this summer by growing a mandevilla vine up a trellis, pergola, or arbor, or even over a mailbox.

While other plants melt in Florida’s hot summers, mandevilla is a tropical vine that almost seems to smile at the heat, putting out colorful trumpet-shaped blooms along its woody, twining stems.

These vines are evergreen in tropical areas but will die back if exposed to freezing temperatures. Because of this, gardeners in colder parts of Florida might want to grow mandevilla in containers that can be brought inside during winter

Senecio confusus - This twining, evergreen sprawling vine has 4 inch long, coarsely toothed, dark green leaves and terminal clusters of orange-red, one-inch, daisy-like flowers with golden centers.

Although it appears throughout the year, peak periods of bloom are spring and summer. The quick growth of Mexican flame vine is ideal to add interest to palm trunks, to soften fences, or to veil a trellis.

Passion vines are fast growers and will need about 200 square feet of trellis, arbor, or fence to climb on.

Campsis radicans - A high-climbing, aggressively colonizing woody vine to 35 ft., climbing or scrambling over everything in its path by aerial rootlets.

Its rapid colonization by suckers and layering makes it useful for erosion control, however, and its magnificent flowers never fail to attract Ruby-throated Hummingbirds within its range.
