Trachelospermum Jasminoides

Hello Forkers, may I have your opinions regarding the best siting for above plant. I know it is not fully hard frost resistant but I want to grow it up a childrens climbing frame on a South West aspect 15ft from a clipped evergreen hedge. The hedge is about 12ft high. It is currently in the greenhouse and since it is such a vigorous grower I am reluctant to put it in the wrong place. All thoughts invited please.image

    HI hotspur , all I know is it likes shelter,and can take a good couple of years to flower, I have one that's 2 years old but very small yet, it hadn't grown much then the scaffolders came and plonked a support on top of it, I expect it may flower in,oh, about 5 years?...

    Have to keep taking the vitamins (and fresh veg!) to ensure I live to see it then.
