I have two tangutica and they certainly grow fast and furious every year. Yesterday I visited a garden where the people wanted privacy from nosy neightbours and they had planted an akebia, which I had never heard of before. I was so impressed I bought one today from Wyeval (garden centre group) for £8.50 which was reduced by 50% and it's a good 3 foot tall. Don't know if they have their garden centres where you live, I'm on the south east coast, but they have a massive sale on and some plants are reduced by 70%
I plan on the front of the garden having some sort of archway with 8 ft shrubs/trees running parallel about 16 ft towards the back. I then want some sort of raised circular centrepiece (maybe a fountain over time). Id like the garden to break to the left and right from there to take you to where my trellises are.
Probably hard to imagine and i know it will take time but why not eh!
Id also like a little sheltered spot to the left with maybe a swinging chair or hammock but would need to be surrounded in say chicken wire and different types of climbers could all hide the improvised wire fence .
Lol I'll probably have another idea soon and change it but who knows
