For an annual vine, it's hard to beat sweet peas. It's a little late to be planting them, but they grow quickly and the older varieties have a marvelous scent. Keep blooming forever if you keep them cut . . .

Thank you for that suggestion. I will try sweet peas next year. How early do they need to be planted? Found little pots of Cathedral Bell vine, about a foot long, at a local garden stand. Will transplant them today in larger pots. They are supposed to be very fast growing.

what about clematis the die to the ground every year and they very pretty blooms.
