In response to message posted by savsmith:

Well, Clarence, you sure know how to pick a spot that will be a challenge for about any plant:-)

Here are a few that might make it there:


  • Bignonia capreolata - (crossvine) - May be semi-evergreen not sure it will flower in dense shade; self clinging; medium moisture.
  • Gelsemium sempervirens - (yellow jessamine) - Needs decent moisture to look its best and some light to flower well.
  • Ficus pumila - (creeping fig) - Self clinging; tolerates dry soil
  • Smilax smallii - Wants well drained but not too dry soil, so may not work if you don't irrigate.
