Very informative video. The third one on your list, purple hyacinth bean vine, is an edible bean. Used in most part of India and Bangladesh. Cooked with potatoes and sautéed with garlic. Its very tasty!!!!!
I like the moonvine/ moon flower vine. They're white, and you can literally watch them bloom open at dusk. Great memories of sitting on my wife's grandmother's front porch and watching this.
I planted purple hyacinth bean vine & cardinal climber for the first time. I planted the cardinal climber for the hummingbirds. I adore heavenly blue morning glories, they are a must. Your climate is very different from mine in Houston. I enjoyed your video.
I love the butterfly pea flower. So pretty the pollinators love them and I use the flowers for a beautiful blue/purple tea. Thank you for sharing this video. I definitely want to grow the Malabar spinach and cardinal climber
In my area of south central Texas (zone 8b), passion flower vines are perennial. They have a tuber at the base. And if you plant cardinal flower vine, be ready to have it come back year after year. It can get invasive. I love morning glories, and their 'sister' moon vine, which opens in the evening.
I've had great luck with Malabar spinach. It's so pretty, reseeds so easily, and is also useful. A neighbor has vines of the ipomoea (cardinal climber) and those purple hyacinth beans, apparently planted together, and spilling over their backyard wall. Very pretty and visited by hummingbirds and pollinators! Really looking forward to getting some for my yard too
This was very helpful. Ive grown several but am willing to try some new ones like the hyacinth bean. I’ve grown red runner beans and have even cooked the beans inside the pods before they turned brown. I love how beautiful the seeds are. The cluster of red flowers attract hummingbirds like nothing else. In warm temperate climates like California you can cover the roots with mulch and it will regrow several vines from the base so you don’t have to sow more seeds the following year. Each bean pod grows to 6 inches in length with anywhere between 5-7 jewel-like seeds inside. The seeds are the size of fava beans but shiny and red/maroon/black spots.
The native vining honeysuckles are wonderful plants. They are great for hummingbirds. I have mine growing around and over the chicken coop run. Be sure to get the native varieties and not the very invasive asian varieties.
I enjoy your teaching! I live in the Sonoran Desert and wish you had shown this in September. Now it is too late for me to plant, but, I have put it onto my calender to plant later this year.
Runner beans are from high altitudes and thus better for cool summer climates. I suspect in AZ like the Deep South, cowpeas (including yardlong beans, some of which have colorful pods) and winged peas (the New Guinea one, not the Mediterranean one, which is cool season) would be better edible pulses. Tepary beans, though annual, would actually be native there. I haven't grown it, so don't know if it has ornamental qualities.
Im located in Modesto CA and It took forever for my purple hyacinth bean vine to flower! This vine REALLY likes heat and will definitely take its tine waiting for it! Haha
Thank you for sharing this information! I have tried growing Canary Climber before and now I know why I’ve not been particularly successful - lots of green and no blooms. One of my new favorites is Purple Bell Vine (introduced to me by Erin of The Impatient Gardner). I hope you’ll give it a try; it’s positively lovely! 💜
In my country, the hyacinth vine is called bonavis. The seeds are edible just like other pulses, and are quite delicious. In addition to dark purple, the seeds can be green or speckled. We tend to have the vines that produce white flowers. The Malabar spinach is also yummy.
I would really like to get some native milkweed vine going in my yard. Nobody sells it. The flowers and pods are pretty, imho, and it's a host for butterflies
@@Lost_Dutchman That's cool, thanks for the tip! I'm in Pima County, so maybe a seed bank down here has some too. I've actually gone around and collected seeds, but I haven't done more than scatter them. Maybe I need to get more proactive with it.
Here in Mesa, I have a dead defoliaged eucalyptus tree in my back yard. Would I be able to wrap the trunk in a trellis like netting and successfully grow vines up it?
I have collected so many seeds from native morning glory vines in my neighborhood, but still haven't gotten any to grow. Same with the native milkweed vine.
Snake gourds (Trichosanthes) and Luffa are ~edible/useful cucurbits with nice blooms, though both vines get pretty big. Trichosanthes has very odd and interesting flowers, though they are nocturnal. Luffa has the stereotypical shape and color of cucumber or melon flowers but larger (2"+). I know pumpkin / squash flowers are larger than that, but they seem to like to hide under foliage.
Great information as always! I've planted the purple hyacinth beans in the past and they are stunning, but have seen conflicting information about eating the pods - do you eat them or just use for seed?
I am in south central Texas 8b and have tried black eyed Susan vine (direct sown) with no germination. I tried 2 seedings and nothing came up. I've read others in gardening forums having the same problem. Is there a secret to this one? Is it better to grow indoors early and then transplant?
Seed would be slow, though often it is the only option: in Arizona, I would want some xeriscapes, and "vining" (probably rambling is more accurate) cacti such as Peniocereus greggii (AZ queen of the night) and some tuberous Echinocerei like E. poselgeri and E. smollii (lamb's tail) would be really high on my list. I realize cacti often bloom for only a brief, spectacular period, but they definitely have curiosity and "local-ambience" value, and Peniocereus fruit is supposed to be rather tasty. I haven't grown these, sadly. I have grown Selenicereus megalanthus (sadly, fully tropical) from seed, but flowering is probably years away.
That pot had 2 vines growing. I would give it 12-18 inch spacing. Here is a blogpost with more information: growinginthegarden.com/how-to-grow-black-eyed-susan-vine/
May I ask, what purpose does the "love and a puff" plants bring? Other than just vines and painted heart seeds. Not saying to stop growing them, I just never herd of this plant
Do you ever come across any snakes? I’m in Tucson and can’t grow my veggies this “tight”. I’ve come across too many diamond back snakes. I believe they come really for the water.
How do you keep rats, mice, and rabbits out of your garden. I too live in the low desert in AZ and keeping rats out of my garden is the biggest problem I have. If my garden isnt completely sealed they eat stuff. At the moment I have a make shift poly tunnel. They've figured out they can go under the plastic at the ground.
I am surprised sweetpeas survived your summer heat. Butterfly peas aren't fragrant, and the eastern USA native Centrosema virginianum doesn't seem to be edible (the flowers of tropical Asian Clitoria ternatea area used for coloring teas), but it should like your heat given a little water (FL sands are droughty but not desert) and if your soil isn't too alkaline. I like the native one, though I prefer edibles, because its foliage is relatively narrow and sparse--I can let it twine through open shrubs, small trees, and espaliers, with little risk of smothering its woody support. Good way to get some summer flowers on spring blooming trees/shrubs like espaliered fruit (I know Clematis is also used that way but haven't seen any yet with non-competitive foliage). For fragrance, I am curious about Vigna caracalla (not edible, and an annual).
PLEASE HELP! I have been trying unsuccessfully to grow my Black Eye Susie Vine from seed. I can't get them to germinate. I have tried soaking the seeds over night, i have tried covering the seeds and placing them on a heat pad in the dark, i have tried placing them under a grow light, these are my favorite summer plants and they are now expensive in my area to purchase. i really want to grow some myself!! What am i doing wrong?? How do you grow yours from seed? I would SO appreciate your help!!!

Hyacinth Vine is a vegetable here in the Philippines, we boil the pods and sauté with butter, salt and pepper.
All the vines are beautiful but the Cardinal Climber vine is amazing! Will be growing it thanks to your video. Thank you!
TYSM Angela!
Thanks also for the blog post with the info.
You are a gift to AZ low desert gardeners!

purple hyacinth bean vine is my favorite! Your voice is relaxing, soft, and calm!
Thumbergia is an easy grow favorite of mine. It's cheerful flowers bring smiles. It's a happy maker in the garden!
Love in a Puff is very invasive, takes over trees and everything. I'd be wary of it.
In my area of south central Texas (zone 8b), passion flower vines are perennial. They have a tuber at the base. And if you plant cardinal flower vine, be ready to have it come back year after year. It can get invasive. I love morning glories, and their 'sister' moon vine, which opens in the evening.

In india this vine is so expensive. I need to look for seeds. :)

Thank you for sharing this video... LOVE IT
Love this! I even have most of these seeds. Now I just need alot more arbors and trellises!
Thank you for sharing the information about vines. Next year I’m on them.

Here in the SE part of New Mexico (US) "HOT" ... Plant on the EAST side of the building so the plant gets the Morning sun... it will last longer.
I absolutely adore vines!!! Thank you for sharing this video. I did not know about so e of them you mentioned! 🧡❤️💜💙💚 Liz from California
Thank you Angela!
Love in a puff vine-I love popping them as a child, it grows wild in Cambodia.
Thank you for these videos, I live in the valley and it’s nice to have some gardening advice relevant to the desert climate.
Even many plants do not grow well here in Zone 5, I love your garden tips. Thank you.
Excellent video, Angela! I'm looking forward to growing hyacinth bean this season!
Love your channel! I always learn something. Thank you!
Morning glory are pretty but have a lot of room, they take over. Love sweet peas, well worth it.
thank you for this
Central CA my nasturtiums are gorgeous in spring and fall.
The native vining honeysuckles are wonderful plants. They are great for hummingbirds. I have mine growing around and over the chicken coop run. Be sure to get the native varieties and not the very invasive asian varieties.
This is so good, I’ve also grown morning glory several years in my garden and love it. I’m in zone 7B I’ll try several other vines this year.
amazing! I was just looking for vine options to grow to cover the fence around our chicken coop 🐓💚
Love this. I hate looking at my block wall so I want to add vines
This was a fantastic video! I only have one trellis though, which one do I pick? Maybe I’ll just get 8 more trelliss’ so I can grow them all!
Yes get 8 more!!! Hahaha or just place tall tomato cages throughout your yard!
I enjoy your teaching!
I live in the Sonoran Desert and wish you had shown this in September. Now it is too late for me to plant, but, I have put it onto my calender to plant later this year.
Wonderful selection! I'd add scarlet runner beans to the list!!!
But they don't do well in the AZ heat.

Here in San Tan I welcomed my 1st morning glory. What is the typical variety that comes wildly out here in AZ. Beautiful but definitely invasive!
Beautiful! I'm hoping to grow more vining flowers this year (zone 6b). I love your trellis! Can I ask where they came from?
Thank you!
+ Scarlet runner bean & Butterfly pea.
I’ve tried canary vine many times but never succeeded.
Good video - thanks!
I would really like to get some native milkweed vine going in my yard. Nobody sells it. The flowers and pods are pretty, imho, and it's a host for butterflies
Maricopa Community College seed banks had some native milkweed varieties. Might be worth checking it out. 👍

I planted hyacinth bean last April, and it grew fast, but it didn't bloom until late October.
Same here in NorCal, zone 9b. This space was not all day sun. When I grew it previously, it got all day sun and bloomed much earlier.
So much good information. Just love it. I’m in the high desert. Any suggestions for hearty vines up here?
Thank you 🙏
I live in Arizona also. Where did you get the black arched trellises? I need those for my passion vines!
Video coming soon!
Where did you get your metal trellises?? They look like a fast and attractive way to get things up in the air!

Mine died back during summer. Did not regrow.
@@GrowingInTheGarden I see. So you had it for one season?
Nice 👍
Thanks 👍 ur
Hi Angela, will any of these vines climb a block wall here in AZ, or do I need some sort of trellis? Thx
They will need a trellis
Here in Mesa, I have a dead defoliaged eucalyptus tree in my back yard. Would I be able to wrap the trunk in a trellis like netting and successfully grow vines up it?
Your garden vedio’s are awesome!!!Do you sell morning glory and nasturtium climbing variety seeds? I live in north Phoenix and want to plant them now.
I link to seed sources in this blogpost: growinginthegarden.com/10-beautiful-vines-that-grow-from-seed/
These vines are all beautiful! Are these all safe to have with pets around?
Hyacinth beans have toxic levels of cyanogenic glucoside. Many of them are edible, but can't speak to all of the other vines.
nice plant
Love this ! What are some good vines for shade areas?
Thanks for this info! W
hat do you think of moon flowers?
I have collected so many seeds from native morning glory vines in my neighborhood, but still haven't gotten any to grow. Same with the native milkweed vine.
@flash.flood.area. I put my my milkweed seeds in the fridge for a month. It seems to help with the germinating problem. Good luck.
Would love to know where the arbors came from! Nice ones
Video coming soon!
@@GrowingInTheGarden Ooo! Thanks!
Angela, I haven't seen seeds on my passion flower vine, how are they producing?

Luffa has the stereotypical shape and color of cucumber or melon flowers but larger (2"+). I know pumpkin / squash flowers are larger than that, but they seem to like to hide under foliage.
"Here in the low desert" Lucky you!
I love your content! Can you recommend more edible vines for the desert Southwest (zone 8a-b in southern New Mexico)?
I plant the Asian long beans, they do well in the heat, and if harvested young are OK as string beans, Cow Peas also love to climb.
Sure, this video has some: th-cam.com/video/t7A1_tgzzos/w-d-xo.html
Great information as always! I've planted the purple hyacinth beans in the past and they are stunning, but have seen conflicting information about eating the pods - do you eat them or just use for seed?
I have the same question! 😆
come in white also
Although purple hyacinth beans are consumed in several parts of the world, preparation is tricky (due to the toxic levels of cyanogenic glucoside).
