What type of climber can I grow in a pot?

Am trying a clematis in a small pot one side of the patio door, but would like something different the other side. Any suggestions.

What type of climber can I grow in a pot?
First of all, it depends if it is going to be in full sun, part shade or full shade. I would suggest to grow a Lonicera, Bignonia, Passiflora or climbing Roses for full sun, then you can use Jasmine or Wax flower for part shade, and Hedera helix for full shade. When planting a creeper in a pot don't forget that it will dry out of water more quicker and to fertiliser it once every 2 weeks, because it needs constant nutrient availability.
Reply:Golden Hop. It's an herbaceous climber. That is, it dies down to the ground each winter, and then comes up fresh and golden next year. It needs support, but wont take over.
Reply:Jasmine ... ;)





Passion Flower ... ;)
Reply:moon flower would be easy to grow from what I understand. I am doing this myself this year.





I am growing these vines from seed in 3 inch pots and it says to do this 8 weeks before your last frost date for your area. This allows them to develop earlier and for the bloom time to be sooner, and I am taking it that this also means longer, after you set them in the ground after your last frost date.
Reply:It would depend on the size of the pot. Honeysuckle is a very quick grower, comes in many varieties and smells very sweet. As does jasmine - and you can get winter flowering jasmine so, combined with the clematis, you'll get blooms most of the year between them.
Reply:you don't say where you are located and that can make a difference but my daughter in Fla has a climbing fuschia which is pretty and a delicate. It can be grown up to 5 ft in a pot and roots well. She got it Home Depot and eventually put it in the ground and has given others pieces of it to root.
Reply:Ivy would grow well but a nicer thing to look at would be passion flower!
