Can you grow a climber up a very large sycamore with first branches about 16

Or is it too shady?
Right now it has trumpet vine (which I'll keep) and poison ivy- which I
attack every year. I live in SE Ohio - zone 6. Is there anything you'd
reccomend? Will trumpet vine and roses do well together?

Gee, I'd think that if it *were* a really big sycamore that it would
be too shady for sure. I have seen some photos of roses growing into
really big trees with big canopies, but I can't remember what kind of
roses they were (one was in some sort of public garden). Mine grows on
a 16 foot small VERY DEAD sugar maple.

Can't tell you about roses and trumpet vine, because I've never grown
the latter. I know that some people like to grow clematis and roses
together.
