Vigorous, twining vines can bring gorgeous blooms to the landscape. Gardeners have hundreds of choices for climbing plants that grow in partial shade. In addition to sun requirements, the most important considerations when planting vines are your USDA Plant Hardiness Zone, the soil and the amount of moisture the plants needs.
Chilean Jasmine
Chilean jasmine (Mandevilla laxa) will grow as an annual in colder climates, or, if it's grown in a container, the plant can be moved indoors for the winter. In milder winter weather it will thrive outdoors. The vine will grow up to 15-feet tall or more with blossoms of fragrant, clustered white flowers. It prefers partial shade to full sun with moderate water. It grows in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 9 through 11.
Clematis
The big, purple blossoms of the clematis hybrid Ramona make this vine one of the most favored of the species. The flowers are up to 6 inches across; the vine grows to 10-feet tall. It prefers well-drained soil and moderate water in partial shade to full sun and grows in USDA Hardiness Zones 4 through 11.
Climbing Snapdragon
The climbing snapdragon (Asarina antirrhiniflora) blossoms in spring and summer in part to full shade.
