Climbers for zone 8
Hi
I need some inspiration. I want to cover the walls of the garden in climbers that will produce lots of fruit and look good too. I'm in England, zone 8 IIRC, ie it only just freezes in winter. I've got walls of all aspects to cover, S, E, W, N. I know I want apples! But a good mix of things would be nice. I might also try a fruiting akebia, but I've been told theyre really rampant, so Im not sure. I would like to try russian olive, elaeagnus angustifolia, but its more bush than climber, so it might become an endless hassle to maintain. I have that one and also elaeagnus ebbingei limelight - not convinced either of them are suitable tho. Thinking of possibly putting kiwi on the north wall, it will get some direct sun once it gets about 6' high. I is in need of inspiration - any welcome! Regards, NT |
