Vine for lattice

Any suggestions for a potted vine (large pot) on a deck that will be good for privacy, and fill in relatively quickly on a lattice. Evergreen is ideal. We tried Jasmine and it did not survive the Vancouver BC winter.
thanks

gardenvirgin -- What is your growing zone? You could try Hardy Kiwi Vine. Without knowing your growing conditions I can't really recommend anything and have it survive. Can you give a little more info please.

I think your best bet would be to try Evergreen Clematis (Clematis armandii) - it does need protection from winter wind and hot sun. If your Jasmine died this winter, it was an unusual winter due to combo of wind and temps so don't use it as your "zone". Don't be afraid to try the Jasmine again.

We are in Vancouver, BC, Canada.We have not identified our zone as we are trying to navigate this website a bit, and as our user name indicates, we are new at gardening but very interested. Just assuming it is the same as the other Vancouver BC poster, 8B
thanks

Welcome to Davesgarden. Yes, 8b is the zone for Vancouver but this past winter (November) was abnormal winter weather. Even the native plants too a beating. What exposure (direction) is your porch? Does it get very sunny/windy, etc? There are a few other evergreen vines available.

I suggest an Akebia

I have had mine in a container for the past 3 years. It remains evergreen during the winter and fills in quickly.
You will need to do some training of the vines to get them to go where you want...LOL

I'd suggest Virginia Creeper but I suspect it needs more dirt than a pot full. Some liken this vine as a thug but I'm terribly fond of it. It really needs space and fills in quite well compared to most other vines. There are some great types of Wysteria and Honeysuckle and Trumpet Vines. Most vines need considerably more dirt than a pot full of dirt. I hope you have a large pot of dirt.

We have a southern exposed back deck, and yes we have a very large pot which can hold more then enough dirt I would think. We love Wysteria, and all the other ideas are great. Thanks

A sneaky trick I've used in the Vancouver area is to grow Scarlet Runner Beans in the same pot. While you are waiting for your vine to mature, the beans produce lots of vines and yes, flowers too. Heavens, you might even get beans.....

Any other annual vine will work, but the Scarlet Runners put out LOTS of foliage very quickly. Just make sure you fertilize for whatever your main plant is.

I am starting a vine I haven't seen before, cypress vine. It's supposed to get to be 15 feet long. Has beautiful ferny foliage and red trumpets. Not sure if it will grow in your zone. It is supposed to be an annual tho. I live in zone 5 so I think I will grow in a pot.
I was originally going to grow wisteria, although seems to be aggressive, and worried about the fact its poisenous. Beautiful though. They do have a winter hardy wisteria.

My daughter in Seattle had Akebia. It grows fast and is evergreen. It should not get out of hand in a pot.

I have also had an Akebia and it seemed to stay evergreen. Nice fine foliage and the blooms are ok. Grows nicely on a balcony. It'd probably be your best bet and maybe grow a Passiflora for added blooms (not Maypop).

gardenvirgin, if you are looking for evergreen, fast growing (and a bit invasive if not checked) grow Japanese Honeysuckle. http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/76648/index.html

I wanted a fast growing vine to cover the fence in our vegetable garden and I got it. Evergreen, and the most heavenly fragrance when it blooms.

Beware of it's growth, it must be kept in check. I'm rooting it for our patio area this year, it will make an excellent privacy screen.

Thank you all for your advice. We have some great ideas now. We will likely be asking alot of questions. What a excellent resource.
