Annual flowering vines for part shade?
Comments (2)Cup and Saucer vine (Cobea scandens) is nice. Blak-eyed-susan vine (Thunbergia) is another one. Is there a reason that you want only annual vines? There are a lot of perennials that would also work. Wisteria of course, and Clematis are very showy....See MoreTropical vine for part shade?
