How about Akebia quinata alba, Janet? It smells heavenly and flowers
over a long period though it needs two of the same species to pollinate,
so they could also grow the chocolate one! It could be followed by a
jasmine as you say or perhaps by Cobea scandens planted annually? Rosa
Gloire de Dijon is one of my personal favourites and so is Mde. Isaac
Pereire, though it's not remontant but has a fabulous scent.


I've got Madame P but it is a shrub not a climber and does struggle a
bit. I liked Compassion though an older variety - for the scent but
Gloire de Dijon might be an alternative .
Thank you. Just want to get the basics in for them to inspire them, they
have been a bit overwhelemed by the bare garden and what worries me is
that there aren't many weeds!!
