I think that is a tall order. Don't think it is evergreen, but type passion vine in to google images...

It's AWESOME!

What zone are you in, CR?

I think it's Zone 7...El Paso,TX. The Lady Banks stays green all winter but it only flowers about 3 weeks. I like the passion vines but I think they die off in the winter.

We are in Charleston, SC and confederate jasmine will stay green all winter. I don't have any now and can't remember how long it blooms, but it seems like it blooms all summer. It smells divine. It grows like crazy, too.

Don't the yellow and the orange trumpet vine bloom all summer?

He CR...do you ever hear from saywhatagnes?

her birthday is next week I'd like to send a card. But I've sent cards, email, a gift box once and I've never heard from her again. I can't imagine that she moved because I think they had been there for a long time. and they had such a nice home.

I miss her.

Do not plant trumpet vines in southern climates. It is very invasive and hard to eradicate once established. It spreads through the roots. If you have a trumper vine on a garden fence, its roots will spread into the tilled soil of the garden for 25 feet or more and will sap other garden plants.

On the plus side, it is hardy and will attract humingbirds. When I lived on a farm in southern Illinois, we had a trumpet vine. It died back each fall, but handily survived the winters and came back each year as strong as ever. Treat the vines the same as grapes. We never pruned or did anything to the plant. It was a reliable "weed".

Passion Vines here demand a lot of trimming to keep them from turning into a tangled mess.

I have a clematis that blooms all summer, Betty Corning I think.....it's a bell shaped bloom, takes our direct hot sun well. I'm not sure what it would do in your temperature, CB, especially in the winter.

I like domesticated morning glory, but in my area at is usually an annual, grown from seed. It is very pretty, grows rather fast.
I agree be very wary of trumpet vine, it can really take over, and is a real bear to get rid of.

What about a rose, like Climbing Pinkie?

One I forgot about.....what about a climbing hydrangea?

Amber has cypress vine that has tiny different colors of blooms all summer. The leaves are very fine and do look like evergreen but it will not stay green all winter. We are in zone 5. It comes up the next year on it's own from seeds. She has it planted at the base of her arch.

I think a spray would get rid of it if it became a problem. Digging it out is a real chore. The blossoms attracted ants something terrible, I hated to pass through the arbor mine was on. It is a beautiful vine and I wouldn't mind planting it in a yard because the constant mowing would keep it from spreading. I lived near one that was planted on a fence that was mowed on both sides, the owner had no problem with it spreading. I have also seen the yellow one planted on a wire that supported a telephone pole. Beautiful!

Winter Jasmine will stay green all winter, but it doesn't bloom all summer - it quits blooming when it gets hot. Passiflora incarnata smells like peanut butter, would be in bloom from June til frost, but is invasive.

Annual morning glories might work for you. There is a Florida native perennial morning glory that I grow that blooms from April until frost - purple blooms.

I bought (at Lowe's I think).3 really pretty vines called
DIPLADENIA. It's a vigorous evergreen vine, pink trumpet shaped flowers likes full sun-6 hours of Direct sun, blooms year around here in FL but is grown as an annual in colder areas.

We've had a Crossvine for many years. It blooms all summer long if you keep it well watered. It has not been a problem for spreading profusely.
