    yes there is some space Dag trying to get the climbers to grow down with little success, all the climbers want to do is grow up, the glenneven is sort of growing down on the left but the jasmine to the right is having none of it.
    While i turned my back and answered the phone in the other room went in and caught rosa at the soil in my new trendy plant, The ones on my balcony she cant get at as i have them covered with trellis and chicken wire. [​IMG]

    Well, seriously I would be very proud of that, it must take an awful lot of looking after especially in this weather?

    hi dag it doesnt really take a lot of looking after its just when the climbers are growing and i cant get to them, would you just leave them and let them get on with it.
    The watering is not too bad as i use a small watering can and i also have a childs watering can, it is cute bright green. :rolleyes: [​IMG]

    Rosa, what a lovely profusion of plants! Sorry I was out earlier, glad DAG was there to help. Is it because the climbers are ecaping from the balcony that you can't get to them, or just there's so many?

    hi liz, The climbers although they are growing inside the balcony i have got control but when they are growing on the outside i cannot get to them it is the jasmine, i dare not go too far over in case smething gives way and i would go over the top as i stand on a stool. When i have been able to grab some of the jasmine and pull it in i have ended up snapping them but i dont mind as they grow back. The gleneven on the left is fine i seem to have more control over that. [​IMG]
