I did see it aym. Lots of pots. My query was still valid. I dug up concrete against the wall of a previous house so that I could plant directly. Far better than containers for climbers
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I think the 'controversial' climber (ie 'not boston ivy') with the red leaves and tendrils is an ornamental grapevine. That won't show signs of life until quite late, probably May.

A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
Ok - we're in north Yorkshire. I was meaning shouldn't there atleast be a small bit of green inside the stems, rather than green leaves... but will maybe wait and see for a bit before replacing it. The ornamental vine sounds a bit less destructive than Boston ivy! ASsume that's something like this

Fair enough - it's your garden
But if you want climbers against that wall you'll need to invest in some bigger containers

Shouldn't it have some green in it somewhere at the moment, though?
