yes, i am clearing my raised bed below a very high wall.
Now considering all the climbers, i have an idea of ivy but also honeysuckle, clematis and jasmine.

Can i intermix the these with ivy?
Please, as the honeysuckles and clematis and jasmines have probably died down, where would i get cuttings now, i am in the dun laoghaire area and do not mind doing a scoot around in the car, but HOW do you recognise these now that they have died down, especially honesuckle which is a favourite of mine?

all ideas gratefully received.

if it is any use to you Aldi or Lidl have climbers on offer this coming week, of a 3 pack of climbers including honeysuckle and at only E7.99 per 3 pack, well worth the money and at least you know they have routes system developed,

might be worth a shot
