| I have a wooden fence which separates our yard from a field. It gets full sun.I'm looking for a vine which will not completely block the view of the field but will provide some color. Thanks for the help. |

| kjmcd, Try an annual that is delicate looking when it grows, like cypress vine. You can buy the seeds at any big box store. I think they bloom by the end of July, little cute red flwoers, and the vine itself is lacy, delicte, pretty actually, different looking, not overpowering. Look up online at pics. |

| Oops, BTW that is jessamine not jasmine. Another one to consider is Clematis Armandii, evergreen and fragrant white flowers in the early spring. |

| Will Carolina Jessamine climb on a metal chain link fence in full NC summer sun? Will the metal get too hot and burn the vine. What about Aster vine? I'm okay with putting a wooden trellis up in front of the metal fence to avoid killing my plants if need be. |
