Last June Mr MC&W and I planted a lot of climbers against a fence to the side of the garden. The good news is that they are still alive and have not died, I am am really rather good at killing plants. As you can see they are growing well, with a lot of new growth since they were planted.
Planting climbers
I have decided not to prune them this year, instead I have been very busy weaving them and getting them to grow where I want them to. With in reason, climbers seem to have minds of their own.
There are quite a few areas of the fence that have very limited cover so my mission is to get them to grow covering those areas. As you can see at the moment they are pretty easy to tie and weave into the fence and I can carry this on as they grow more. Lesson learnt, cut your twine before you go out and secateurs are no good for twine cutting.
Hopefully soon the Clematis Montana Tetrarose will be flowering and providing us with lots of flowers and the pollinators with a welcome meal.
