Vining & climbing fruit seeds — fruit that grows up, not out
Some of the most exciting fruits grow on vines and climbers — from melons and watermelons to passion fruit and cucamelons — ideal for training up a support and saving space in a greenhouse or sunny spot. Browse them within our fruit seed range. New to fruit from seed? Our fruit growing guide covers the basics.
Most climbing fruits need warmth — the calendar shows when to sow.
Fruit on a vine
Trained up netting or canes, vining fruits like melons, watermelons and exotic passion fruit make the most of vertical space and keep their fruit off the ground. Many are warmth-loving crops for under cover.
Growing climbing fruit from seed
Sow warmth-lovers indoors in spring, pot on, and plant out into rich soil once it's reliably warm. Give them a sturdy support to climb, feed and water generously while growing, then ease off as the fruit ripens.
