 o
espalier vine on circular wire

i saw something like this a few years ago at the castle of leeds in southern england – and ask a friend to make this metal structure – it is about 8 feet tall and has approximately 28 feet of wire for the vine to run – now – i need a suggestion – a flower / or fruit / or nice leaves / i am not sure a grape or scuppernong would work here – full sun –

i do not want to cover and hide the structure – i would like a vine that could be trained and have one main trunk –

Any ideas to share – thanks so much

The structure at leeds had a grape vine that was over 75 years old – vine was arm size
