i have planted aubretia along the top of a wall and want it to hang over the top and tumble down - however all it wants to do is to grow the other way into the border. Any advice on how best to train it?
thanks

It is most probably seeking the sunny side of the wall. I do not think there is much you can do to encourage it to do otherwise. But perhaps others will know.

Sorry, Bamboo - we crossed. But at least we agree!

Hang weights from the foliage over the wall!

If maximum light is on the border side, that's why the plant's headed that way. And it will continue to do that whenever it gets the chance I'm afraid. You can get it to trail down walls which are in good sunlight and open both sides, but it'll always head for the brightest side.
