Description

  • In this collection, our growers will choose 3 (or 5/7 for the larger collections) of the very best, available 3L shade-loving climbers from the following selection:
    1. Climbing Hydrangea
    2. Clematis
    3. Chocolate Vine
    4. Crimson Glory Vine
    5. Virginia Creeper
    6. Ivy
  • We can’t all be blessed in life with a sunny, south-facing garden, but that’s no reason not to be able to enjoy some amazing climbing plants.
  • With that in mind, for this collection, our expert growers have meticulously curated a selection of some of the most wonderful shade-tolerant climbers out there.
  • Whether you’ve got a part shaded (2-6 hours of sun) or fully shaded spot (less than 2 hours of sun) in the garden, there’s a climber in here for you. And trust us, these blockbuster wall-lovers will soon make you the envy of your sun-soaked neighbours across the street. Who needs that big orange blob in the sky, anyway?
  • With a delightful array of both foliage and flowers, many of these climbers are also sumptuously-scented, too, with notes of vanilla, almond and chocolate.
  • Grown by our specialist climbing nursery, in Worcestershire, these shady customers are sent to you in prime condition for planting, so go and get them in the soil!

Best plants you will ever get online

I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.

Highly recommended all round

Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!

Satisfied customer

Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.

A really good quality tree

A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
