Id like something to cover a strong trellis while I'm waiting for my

that they become hard to eradicate? Is it via runners or what?

Thank you,

The main problem is that whatever you grow it in, the Russian Vine
will swamp your clematis which won't stand a chance. Patience is often
a real virtue in gardening. Anyhow, if you choose the right clematis
you'll be surprised how fast it will grow!
