Vines for a small enclosed garden
| | |

| I am deciding what to plant in a small walled garden that adjoins my bedroom bathroom windows. It is partial shade, protected of course, with mid-day overhead sun. I want a vine that can provide interest and climb a cedar wall, but not climbing hydranga. I was considering a schizophragma, either chinese, rosea or japanese. Does anyone have experience to share, or other good plants instead? |

| The climbing Hydrangea and Schizophragma are very similiar with their aggressiveness after the roots start to grow. |

| Clematis would be good... roots like shade, tops like some sun |

| I ended up buying a goldsturm? honeysuckle which is blooming nicely in its second summer, a bignonia which climbs the rough wall well but has not bloomed, and as an impulse, a porcelain vine which is on the outside of the wall and begining to cover the pergola type roof of the garden. |
