Are there two climbers up there? I think I see a blue wisteria, is there also a white one?

Well spotted Sid.
I planted a blue wisteria on one side of the arch and a white one on the other and now they are both up the tree as well. Interestingly, the blue one starts into growth about 10 days before the white one every year so for a few days, there are only blue flowers. It should be at its peak both both fully out this weekend

I have a similar challenge at Shenstone and first thought was to use a clematis, but wisteria looks impressive.
