UPWARDS, put in a tall stake and grow a Clematis up it. Gravetyre Beauty in this case.
Attach a guy rope to the stake and grow a plant up it.
In this case a Billardiera longiflora, the berries, flowers pale yellow and finished.
Continue the rope horizontally and allow the Clematis to grow along it.
C. Gravtyre Beauty, ( no mildew so far this year)
To meet the pergola over the evening sun seat.
Grow a Clematis cirrihosa balearica up the left side allowing it to continue up the Elaeagnus shrub at the back.
On the other side grow a Clematis viticella Alba.

The statue looks down along the path. She is on a plinth as she is not that tall. I did knock her over once and broke her head off, so better out of the way. OH glued it back with cement glue!

Thank you Stera. I go to HPS members open gardens days, real enthusiasts, meet member friends, pick up good ideas from there often, and unusual plants.

So much there for the wildlife/pollinators, Sue! Lots of interest going on.
