I'm trying to grow some bindweed for the purposes of
laying an ardivulent trestle or trellis structure.
Any (sensible) suggestions as to how I might achieve this?

I have a rather small garden so a convactulated approach will
probably be required.

I know it's a very borderline plant in the UK, because it needs hot
summers to ripen its wood for the winter, and does not like
waterlogging but I can 'foster' this situation for now at least.


Thanks, Bob


The above ground stems only occasionally go through the winter but with
protection will eventually become woody, What is the effect you are hoping
to achieve? there must be better ways of achieving it than bindweed!
