Ned:
There are many schools of thought on this subject. None are engraved in
stone.
In my patch, which is in FL and has southern exposure, I have a plant on the
western end of the patch and two on the eastern end. The western plant is
vining toward the east; one of the plants in the eastern end of the patch is
vining toward the west and the second one is vining south.
Not a problem, as I will train the southern vining plant to grow west
carefully by placement of stakes as growth progresses.
