Hi Kevin,

Ivy is ALWAYS a good choice IMO :~)) The following site has a huge list of types
(with pictures etc): http://members.tripod.com/~Hatch_L/hede1616.html

The smaller leaved. multi coloured types don't grow too fast, but this may be an
advantage.

The Beeb has a top ten of shade lovers:

Hi,

Can anyone help on a simple question and my problem.

My next door neighbour has 'kindly' built an extension next to my house,
which means I am now staring at a boring wall when I look out of my kitchen
window.

My idea is to place some trestles on the wall and add some climber types of
plants.

It is a shaded area most of the day, only getting sun about 3pm for about an
hour to 2 hours. The 'soil' is basically clay, so I would need I think a
hardy plant with these conditions.

I'm thinking of some kind of an 'ivy', but don't know where to start.

Any tips, advice or pointer would be appreciated.
