    Amazing what folk give away!
    I was given this at work but not my style,so gave it to the couple next door...Then the cheeky devils asked if I would put it up. :rolleyes:
    So that was how I spent my Saturday! :D [​IMG]
    Oh...and they asked if I had any spare plants to grow on it.... :D

    I will be adding some Chilean Glory vines to the arch..seeds that Nathan sent me.
    And I've got my eye on one or two Clematis I spotted at another building site I'm going to again in the week
    ;)

    Bindweed would look really nice on that arch Paladin along with a bit of 'old mans beard' or russian vine :D :D :D Just joking.
    By the way Nathan my chilean glory vines are doing well also. [​IMG]
