@@eileenmuir1698 Hi Eileen, Many thanks for watching and the message. I’m glad you found the video useful for your new house build, which sounds like a great adventure. My plan was to also make a video for sunny location but never quite got around to doing so. I will do one soon though so please keep a look out. Enjoy your weekend 🪴🌸🌼

Great detailed info !! Thanks . Passion flower is also a evergreen vine I guess

Many thanks for watching and the message. Yeah i do like Passion flowers. They need full sun though so couldn’t include them in this video, maybe in the sunny edition ☀️

Very detailed and helpful video, I'm trying to find climbers for my north facing garden and will definitely be trying a few of your top 10 👍👌 subscribed and can't wait to work my way through your other vids 😎

Hi Nicky, Many thanks for watching and for taking the time to message. Glad you found the video useful. Hopefully your garden will soon be as you wanted. It’s not a climber but have you considered Garrya eliptica. As well as in full sun it will also grow on a North facing position. It’s evergreen too. All the best 🌸🌼

Hi Linda, Many thanks for watching and taking the time to message me, very much appreciated. It always amazes me how few people plant climbing plants when they can add so much more interest and depth to a garden. Well done on being the exception 🌸🌼

Clematis, my favorite

@diyhomeandgardening 10 ай бұрын

Many thanks for sharing and watching the video. Clematis are such a massive group of plants but surprisingly so few that will grow in shady areas, which is a real shame. Happy gardening 🌸

Really useful video. Thanks. I planted a honeysuckle Graham Thomas a month ago and it's growing happily on a trellis. I am thinking of growing a star jasmine on the same trellis. Is that okay? Or will one of them outcompete the other?

@diyhomeandgardening 5 ай бұрын

@@AJICams Hi. Many thanks for watching and the question. I normally suggest growing just 1 plant type to a trellis, with the only exception being growing a summer type clematis with a climbing rose. Your Honeysuckle would quickly outgrow the Trachelospermum and smother it. Hope this helps 🌼🌸

@AJICams 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for your reply. I bought the honeysuckle for just £2.50 from Asda and was pleasantly surprised by the fast growth. I thought the honeysuckle might be just right on the east facing side of our patio. It gets more shady the closer you get to the house as the roof blocks off the morning sun. Having seen a few honeysuckle bushes now, I think the fragrance is not as strong as star jasmine. I am now thnking of replacing the honeysuckle with the star jasmine and seeing how it gets on. Fragrance is what I'm really looking for. What do you think?

@diyhomeandgardening 5 ай бұрын

@@AJICams on an east facing position, especially if it’s an exposed spot, then I would probably go with the Honeysuckle over the Trachelospermum as I think you will get more flowers. That said, if you need evergreen coverage then the Trachelospermum is a better option, despite producing fewer flowers than if planted in a sunny position. Enjoy the flowers

Hi, thank you for a great video. For the Jasmine, what fertiliser would you recommend? Thank you

@diyhomeandgardening 10 ай бұрын

Hi Grace. Many thanks for watching and the question. Do you mean the Trachelospermum as per the video? If so then I would apply something like fish, blood and bone fertiliser as it’s a good balanced feed that is slower acting. In the summer months, when flowering, then a liquid fertiliser is better as it provides additional water too. For liquid feeding then I would suggest using a tomato fertiliser as that will promote healthy growth as well as promoting flower development. Enjoy your gardening 🌸

What growing zone do these climbers flourish?

@diyhomeandgardening 10 ай бұрын

Hi Irma. Thanks for watching and messaging. The U.K. is classed as zone 8 and so all of these climbers are happy with our winter temperatures, except the Dregea if temperatures fall below minus 5. In warmer climates then all these, and more, climbers are then available. Hope this helps 🌸
