I'm new to this group and to the UK. We've just had the garden
enclosed
with trellising and wire so that our cats can go outside but not
leave
the property (Unfortunately one of the cats was hit by a car and
killed
instantly last month so we decided to do this). I'd like to plant
some
climbers to soften the appearance of the garden and cover the
wire.
We're located in the suburbs of London and the garden is pretty
much
sheltered. Is it too late in the season to plant now? Should I
just
wait until next spring? Any advice on what to plant? It can't be
anything too heavy so wisteria is out. I was thinking jasmine and
perhaps some variegated ivy.
Here's a site with pictures and info all about climbers - they do mail
order too :~))
