Hi Everyone,
We didn't get the long hot dry Summer as normal here on the
Spanish Med. coast. We have had storms with heavy rainfall for short
periods over the past number of months and the average monthly
temperatures has been lower than those of the previous ten
years. Definitely good for the garden but not so good for the
tourists. However, October has been splendid.
So to my query. We have a chain link fence dividing
us from our neighbours about 40 metres long. It is 2 m high, facing east,
probably with full sun until 4pm during Summer months but only a couple of hours
sunshine during the Winter with the house and other trees and shrubs casting
shade. The other considerations are i) my neighbour has a 10m cypress
hedge growing just at the other side of the fence ii) swimming
pool waste water exits and runs along part of the fence. I
am looking for some flowering climbers/ramblers (not too
vigorous) which might cope with the above situations. Advice
welcome.

recent world tour. Many thanks.
