The arbor Jim built is on the north side of the house which receives 2 -3 hours of intense afternoon sun during the hot months in DC. Our Bignonias never lost their leaves. When we got them, they already looked a bit dried up and the leaves were curled up a bit, too. We planted them in late September.

What's your zone?Marthanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23439295647377206.post-9087447835744904902011-03-24T11:24:21.579-07:002011-03-24T11:24:21.579-07:00Hi there, I follow your blog and am learning so mu...Hi there, I follow your blog and am learning so much from reading your posts. I have a question on flowering vines. My husband built an arbor on the north side of the house. We planted 3 bignonia last fall. But they all seem to be dead. Have you experimented with this vine? Besides Clematis, do you have any suggestions if we end up having to replace the Bignonia?<br />Thanks!NoName Lakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04294754673642534572noreply@blogger.com
