I have a birdhouse on a 5-6' pole and I want something to climb it. I love clematis but they like the sun. I would do ivy but wouldn't it take over the area on the ground? Any advice?
What's a good climber for the shade?
Climbing hydrangea are great. A little slow to start, but will give you good greenery and small white flowers in summer. Works well on trees, too.
Reply:thunbergia is a Daisy climber not too heavy on foliage but lots of flowers and quite tolerant to shade climbing snapdragons do a 10 foot pole in no time but one pole of pretty hanging flowers mite only be asking for more. god bless. sincerely andrew
Reply:with clematis it likes sun but there roots like shade they recommend if you put in full sun to put rocks at the base. i would try and planting the clematis
Reply:English ivy, keep on top of the pruning help guide it towards the way you want it to go
