If you look around, you will find very few varieties of vining plants with golden yellow flowers, but we managed to find quite a few:

And the first vine with yellow flowers is a real golden queen, just to give you an idea of what to expect!

1: ‘Golden Gate’ Climbing Rose (Rosa ‘Golden Gate’)

How could we start, if not with the undisputed queen of all gardens, a rose? And ‘Golden Gate’ is a climbing variety that deserves a special place on our list…

Rising up above your head to about 8 feet (2.4 meters) this winner of the Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society has fully double flowers that reach about 3.3 inches across (8.0 cm), and each can have up to 6 dented petals.

2: Carolina Jessamine (Gelsemium sempervirens)

Let me prove the point I made in the introduction… And I will do it showing you Carolina jessamine, an evergreen twining climber native to the south of the USA and Guatemala…

3: Yellow Trumpet Vine (Campsis radicans f. flava)

Here’s yet another climber with richly colored blossoms for your garden, but this time they will lighten up your garden in mid season: yellow trumpet vine! The flowers are, of course, trumpet shaped and they open at the mouth splitting into five broad and roundish petals, giving you a very soft look.

4: ‘Bill MacKenzie’ Clematis (Clematis orientalis var. tangutica ‘Bill MacKenzie’)

Clematis is one of the most popular climbers in gardens all over the world, and it is famous for its purples, violets, blues etc. But few people know that it can also produce flowers in the color of gold!

5: Hammock Viper’s Tail (Pentalinon luteum)

Hammock’s viper’s tail is a medium sized and very exotic looking vine from the Caribbean, Honduras and the south of the United States. It is sometimes called and sold as yellow mandevilla, and in fact they are similar, and they belong to the same family, Apocynoideae.

6: Yellow Butterfly Vine (Mascagnia macroptera)

Native of Central and South America, yellow butterfly vine is very elegant and light… A fast growing vine, it has a very sunny but also gentle personality… The blooms will come from spring to fall, in a long marathon where this climber will produce clusters of “orchid shaped” flowers in bright golden yellow, though they may pale to a blonde shade in some conditions…

7: Climbing Pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo)

Here’s a twist in our list… Yes, pumpkins are vining, often scrambling vines, but, as you know, you can get some varieties to climb… And they are not just valuable in vegetable gardens… Quite a few people grow them for their decorative value as well… In the end, if you don’t like the effect, they are annuals and you can replace them next year.

8: ‘California Gold’ Bougainvillea (Bougainvillea x buttiana ‘California Gold’)

You can literally have the energy of sunlight all year round with ‘California Gold’ bougainvillea! Like her sisters in purple, red or white, in fact, this shrubby and thorny climber will blossom all year round, in waves, but really, it is hard to see it without a few blossoms on it.

9: Lady’s Slipper Vine (Thunbergia mysorensis)

Native to India, lady’s slipper vine is one of the most exotic looking climbers with yellow blooms you can ever grow in your garden… However, you will have to forgive me, because it also has another color in it… Ok, fist of all, the blossoms are hard to describe…

10: Yellow Honeysuckle (Lonicera flava and Lonicera japonica ‘Halliana’)

You could grow the more popular yellow honeysuckle (Lonicera flava), but I suggest you also look at the lesser known ‘Halliana’ Japanese honeysuckle… While the first gives you golden and bright orange even red, the latter (Lonicera japonica ‘Halliana’) stays within the yellow range, but with softer tones…

11: Canary Creeper (Senecio tamoides)

Native of South Africa, canary creeper has a very temperate look and personality, and brightly so. This creeping or climbing vine has become a decorative variety now, but in its natural habitat it grows on escarpments and on the margins of forests, where it clings to trees and drapes them.

12: Yellow Fence Morning Glory (Ipomoea ochracea)

And we a morning glory variety could not be absent from our Sun colored list. And you may know many varieties in white, purple, violet and blue… But there is a lesser known one that’s called yellow fence morning glory for a reason.

13: Yellow Nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus)

Native of Central and South America, nasturtium is a really useful climber (or creeper, if you wish)! And it does have yellow in its blossoms, but also red and orange…

14: Black Eyed Susan Vine (Thunbergia alata)

This climber shares part of its name with a famous sunny perennial, Rudbeckia for botanists, and for a reason… You will find thus reason at the very center of black eyed Susan vine, where a round black (really dark purple) spot looks like a pupil…

15: Cat’s Claw Trumpet Vine (Macfadyena Unguis-Cati)

I have kept a little surprise for last… If you have read our articles before, you will know that we don’t stick to common varieties, we look around, we search… and we have found a really decorative climbing vine from Central and South American forests, where it clings on to tall trees… Its blossoms are trumpet shaped, like others we have seen so far, but they open to such large mouths that they almost look like butterflies
