I'm not a very good gardener - what can I plant up my north facing
fence at the bottom of my garden? It's about 20 - 30 ft from the
house - I can only think of clematis and ivy - is there anything
else that's easy - the fence is about 6 ft high - I promise I'll keep
them watered

Parthenocissus henryana

Lots of cultivars of ivy to choose from. Camellia's do OK on a N face.
As do Wisteria.

Chaenomeles (Ornamental Quince)

Try taking a look online for 'plants for shade' as this is what you
normally by N facing fences!-)
