Pink Flowering Vines Below you will find a list of Vines from our plant database that are pink flowering. If you click on any of the photos, you will see a Virtual Plant Tag that may contain photos, plant descriptions, usage suggestions and a link to where you can buy that plant for your landscaping. The vines can be grown on trellises, fences and pergolas, around patios and decks, under trees, and directly on walls. Most of these vines grow well with average soil moisture and partial shade, though some can take full shade or full sun giving the home gardener more options for use in the landscape. Some of the pink flowering vines are native which frequently helps the plants be more insect resistant, salt tolerant and have natural disease resistance. A very handsome climbing vine that isn't well known is the Goldflame or Everblooming Honeysuckle, Lonicera x heckrottii. Included here with other native plants because this pink blooming hybrid is thought to have native vines as parents. The blossoms are rich, carmine red that changes to pink, early spring and then sporadically through fall. Another vines with striking pink blooms is the cultivar 'Duchess of Albany' Scarlet Clematis, Clematis texensis 'Duchess of Albany', blooming summer through Autumn. Two less well-known non-native vines that deserve mention for their pink flowers are cultivars of the Armand Clematis and Japanese Climbing Hydrangea. Clematis armandii 'Apple Blossom' has white shaded pink petals. 'Apple Blossom' is pretty with its bronze-green foliage when the month long spring bloom time is over. Also known as Japanese Hydrangea-vine, the pink-blooming Schizophragma hydrangeoides 'Roseum' is not technically a Hydrangea but can be grown with the more well known Climbing Hydrangea, Hydrangea anomala petiolaris, to extend the bloom time well into summer in June or even early July. One of the best ways to enjoy pink flowering vines is to plant several different types. This way you can enjoy the vigorous abundance of Honeysuckle thoughout spring, and flow into summer vining color with Clematis and Vining Hydrangeas. Pink is a joyful color in the garden, blending nicely with other pinks, white, red, purple and blues - all cool colors. There is quite a bit of diversity in this list of vines with pink flowers since some are used in the landscape as shrubs and broadleaf evergreens too. Some of the ornamental vines even set fruit and berries which often attracts birds to the home garden. Looking at plants for their multi-season color and attributes is a good way to choose which plant would be best for your landscape.
