Evergreen climber

Good evening all im after an evergreen climber to clinb a 6ft trellis can anybody recomend one please!Many thanks..daz

 

Hi daz, how about, evergreen Clematis, evergreen Honeysuckle, Trachelospermum and Holboellia? :D

 

I;ll have a look at them mate thank you vm.

 

I have an evergreen jasmine which is purple and green. It looks good . Im hoping to put humulus aureus through it. it covered to 5 ft in the first year.

 

I have an evergreen Honeysuckle (or at least I think it is)so I can recomend that, the scent is quite lovely when in flower and really great to walk pass.Hel.xxx.

 

Thanks verry much ladys&gents.Im on the case lol.Garden centre here we come.

 

Hi daz

If your not to bothered about flowers, how about a varigated Ivy such as Hedera Canariensis 'Gloire De Marengo' or Hedera colchica 'Sulphur Heart'. Slightly less vigorous varities are Hedera helix 'Glacier' or Hedera helix 'Buttercup' if you can get it.

I have an evergreen Jasmin but to be honest it is ever red! It is in a pot and most of the leaves have turned red but not dropped strangely. It has been going this way for months but is still alive so I am not sure what's up with it!

 

David I saw an evergreen Clematis today the first time I have noticed them but they are a bit on the pricey side though I'm sure they were marked up at �£24! :eek: Is that the normal price for them do you think? Hel.xxx.

Helen. have a quick (very quick) look at Wilkos.

 

Helen that was probably for something like Armandii, if you look for the cirrhosa type, they should be cheaper. Cirrhosa " Freckles" and C. " Jingle Bells" are beautiful.

 

The most prolific evergreen climber I have seen/planted is Lonicera Etruscan which has a wonderful scent and its only drawback is its growth rate which is very strong but manageable.
