Vining plants are types of plants that grow long, flexible stems that can climb or trail along surfaces. They often use structures like trellises, fences, or other plants for support. Common examples include ivy, morning glory, and grapevines. These plants can add beauty to gardens and landscapes by creating lush green coverage or colorful flowers. Vining plants can be classified into two main categories: annuals and perennials. Annual vining plants complete their life cycle in one growing season, while perennials return year after year. They are popular in gardening for their ability to cover large areas quickly and provide shade or privacy.
