Hi All,
Can anyone suggest some alternatives to wires or lightweight
trellising
for the front of a house.. Needs to be tough enough to stay up
and
support a vigourous passiflora but not tough enough to climb.
The supports will be attached to victorian red brick.

Strong fishing line - transparent - strong but breaks if you climb on
it :~))

Like this idea.. prolly use it with a combo of Kay's uprights.. Screwed
& spacered (off the brick) roofing lathes as the uprights and then small
screw eyes or staples into that with fishing line as the horizontals..
Hopefully the spacers will allow the P to get bind the uprights as well.
Its a P. 'Purple Rain' so should look good if it survives.
