I've just ordered a rambler, Kiftsgate from them online

I hope you have some very tall trees and a lot of room for *that* one!
;-)

I have often wanted to grow a Kiftsgate, but have never managed to allocate
space for it. However, Sacha's remark prompts me to mention that I have a
singularly ugly tree (crab apple? bla bla paucifolia?), about 15 ft high by
10 ft wide. Is that suitable as a frame for a Kiftsgate?

If not, is there another tough rambler which could inhabit it?
