Clematis on a gate
 

This morning, on the way to get my Sunday newspaper, I noticed a
garden get with a clematis growing on it, woven in and out of the
bars of the gate. The stem came up from the hinge side, it is bendy
enough to bend when the gate swings open and closed. It seems a really
nice idea, no doubt it would work with other climbers, I just hadn't
noticed it before.

Yes it works well with most clematis, I have similar on my fruit cage
gate.
