I am looking for a fast growing vine, evergreen to grow on a trellis. I live in south Louisiana.?

One that lives in cool or warm weather and takes full sun. It would be nice if it flowered also.

  1. Morning Glories are great in the spring and summer. They are very fast growing, but die back during the winter.

    Passion Flowers are quick growing, don’t die back and have beautiful flowers.

    Ivy is a standard, but horribly invasive and will likely kill the tree. Ivy tends to root to the tree and suck nutrients from it.

  2. You could try a trumpet vine, or wisteria or clematis. Trumpet vine and wisteria will attract hummingbirds too.

  3. Morning Glorys…. Beautiful green foilage and purple flowers.

  4. I vote for trumpet vine….now, not the fancy ‘madam Galen’ with the bigger bloom as it is deciduous……I just bought two 3 gallon ones…the hummingbirds go crazy for their orange blooms….better have a strong trellis…but the smaller flowered one is evergreen….

  5. im not sure how cool it gets there, but here in vegas we planted two Bouganvilla vines and they are 4 times the size they were when i planted them, i really dont know if the leaves will stay on them, but they flower beautifully, in pink, red, white, golden yellow and sort of an orange shade. the grow like mad, it gets down to freezing a few times here in the winter and it didnt hurt a neighbors plants so i think you would be ok, they love full sun, only downside i know of is they do have thorns. but if you dont have a small child trying to climb them you should be ok, mine are on a fence and growing up a trellis like porch roof support

  6. The Clematis Armandii is an evergreen with white blooms. ClematisxJackmanii has a purple bloom,Clematis Nellie Moser is varigated pink and white, Clematis paniculata[autumn clematis]
    blooms in sept. and has white flowers. The Jackmanni and the Nellie is not an evergreen in GA., but may be in S. Louisiana. Another favorite of mine is Gelsemium sempervirens, common name is Carolina Jessamine, yellow fragrant blooms. Hope this helps. Happy Planting!
