Planting at the base of a pergola
Xref: kermit uk.rec.gardening:158779
I wonder if anyone could help me. I am planning to build a patio with a pergola over the top. The books I have seen recommend cementing the upright posts for the pergola in the ground. I am planning to leave 'holes' in the patio to do this (perhaps cementing in the posts and leaving space for some topsoil above it). The problem I think is that the soil depth needed to support the root structure of say a clemetis, might not be enough? Are there any other ways around this. I don't really want to grow them from tubs or have the pergola structure outside the footprint of the patio. I would be grateful for any suggestions. |
