Thanks, y'all! (G-Mom's posts have given me a southern accent
)
depending on the type of vine...
So far I've started cathedral bells, with plans to also sow morning glories, angel's trumpet, moonvine and, maybe, passiflora. I think I'm forgetting one or 2.
about the bamboo stakes... it depends on the diameter/type of bamboo and the vine in question...
And how tall are the bamboo stakes
The bamboo stakes are 4ft tall, 1/4" in diameter. The plan is to use them as my horizontal supports and small tree branches as vertical supports, placing the verticals in the pots before adding soil, one or two to each pot. Does this sound feasible?
Any chance of building a *as long as the wall is*
and maybe 8", 10" or 12" deep wooden planter box
No. There is limited space between the house and the pool and I don't want to obstruct the walkway with anything permanent. There would also be a drainage problem with the risk of water seeping into the foundation.
And did you tell us which way the wall is facing?
The wall has a southern exposure - it receives sun all day.
