Allotments 4 All

My garden is not very big, so I want to make the most of it. I have a ceanothus which is lovely during its short flowering period but boring the rest of the year. Can anyone suggest a climber which would grow through it without damaging it, and flower after it has flowered itself?

Hi Caroline, I would grow a clematis, something like Polish Spirit which flowers for a long time and grows quickly. Cut it back in Spring and it will grow like billyho again in the summer.

yes i was going to suggest a clematis too. on the way up the hill from the allotment a lady has done this and it looks fab.

Thanks- hadn't heard of "polish spirit" but googled it and it looks pretty.Got some graden vouchers for my birthday so will have to see if I can get one or wait until next year.

Perennial Sweet peas... we have a couple of dozen potted up that didn't sell in June... If you want some Caroline just pm me..
:)

Thanks, Saddad, but I've got more than enough already! Come to think of it, I could move some of them!
