Author Content khabbab lahore Pakistan (Zone 10b) February 22, 2009 08:58 AM Post #6172893 hello, can someone recommend me some fragrant vines for zone 10(India/Pak subcontinent) which are easy to propagate by seed. i am a beginner in gardening. i can provide full sun and i will plant in big container. Currently i have got following vines: poet's jasmine gardenia jasmine jasmine polyanthum jasmine nitidum star jasmine honeysuckle (i am not sure which variety it is) wisteria (its 5 feet long, not flowering yet) ipomoea Alba (moon flower) Quisqualis indica (Rangoon creeper) i know clematis won't work in my area. i tried mandevilla laxa but its flowers are not fragrant. any names would be welcome. thanks, Khabbab Dutchlady1 Naples, FL (Zone 10a) February 22, 2009 09:23 AM Post #6172929 Stephanotis would be on my list. Metrosideros Keaau, HI February 22, 2009 01:55 PM Post #6173977 If you google "Flowering Vines", you will come up with much more information than you might need. There are many sites with descriptions and there are several seed sales sites! astcgirl Brandon, FL (Zone 9b) February 22, 2009 08:32 PM Post #6175652 Pakalana Vine - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/60783/ Corkscrew Vine - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1884/ Some of the passiflora's are fragrant Stephanotis is nice too as Dutchlady said. You could also try some climbing roses, some of them are very fragrant. I'd suggest posting your question in the fragrant forum...we're all fragrant nuts over there. khabbab lahore Pakistan (Zone 10b) February 24, 2009 01:29 AM Post #6181691 thanks for the suggestions. i am going for stephanotis and Phaseolus caracalla(Corkscrew Vine). rjuddharrison Houston, TX (Zone 9a) February 24, 2009 01:51 AM Post #6181722 Beaumontia Grandiflora is fragrant, although it's a very large vine...I believe it's origins are in India. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/51539/ Rj Vimangel Boca Raton, FL (Zone 10a) March 23, 2009 06:28 PM Post #6309719 I just got off a clematis site and there it listed 7 clematis that are good to zone 11...I am in 10, so this is important for me. You can find them at http://www.homeofclematis.net What I like about them is they are light weight. I attached one...they are Viticella Negritjanka, Viticella Alba Lux, Veronica's Choice, Rhapsody, Paniculata Terniflora, Lord Neville and Gillian Blades. rjuddharrison Houston, TX (Zone 9a) March 23, 2009 06:32 PM Post #6309737 mmm...glad you posted those..I really like Clematis, but our list is limited here. AlohaHoya Keaau, HI (Zone 11) March 24, 2009 01:30 AM Post #6311471 I would definitely put the Stephanotis on the list. The Beaumontia is lovely...and beautiful and...grows too high for me to enjoy the scent!!! khabbab lahore Pakistan (Zone 10b) March 25, 2009 08:56 AM Post #6316706 Can i grow Viticella from seed?. Will it come true from seed or i will have to for cutting?
