Don't plant it next to a tree unless you want it to climb to the top.

My one and only Aristolochia I bought as a 3- or 5-gallon plant about 15 years ago. I planted it in mostly shade and tree/plant detritus, at the base of my chainlink fence. Instead of beautifying the fence, It took off in pursuit of sun, climbing to the top of the mature pine tree 2 feet away, where it usually blooms each year. (Unless I get out my binoculars, or see a dead flower on the ground, I would not know it is blooming.) The area is watered only by rain and never fertilized. I think its longevity is due to having its base out of the sun and being rather sheltered by nearby (ugh) wax myrtle.

The flowers are red-purple... can't tell from Google images which kind it is... Elegans or Grandiflora... they show yellow flowers for the Tomentosa.
