ArborBluffGirl.....Thanks for your details re. the Crossvine. I actually quite like the look of it so it might be a choice between that and the Honeysuckle! However, in the end it will probably come down to which is the least rampant! LOL!!! Loris.....I am only just "discovering" the benefits of native plantings so am not to religious whether its native to the State or country! I am (unintentionally) looking at plants that are native to the State but there are also so many things that aren't! Oh the decisions!!! LOL! I have to admitt that I am leaning towards the Honeysuckle as I have always loved the thought of them but always thought they were SUPER invasive so have stayed clear!

Trumpet creeper probably doesn't have a chance up here in Pennsylvania. The deer eat everything that isn't glued down ... LOL I have a honeysuckle climbing up a cliff that looks OK, but it dies back in winter. So do the clematis I have growing up deck posts. I have a climbing oak-leaf hydrangea that doesn't really die back, but it takes a long time to get established and even longer to bloom (Five years and counting. Sigh). I have a couple of hummingbirds that return every year just for the annuals I plant in pots on our deck. You might want to consider a glorious spread of annual flowers at the bottom of the wall, and a climber that isn't necessarily a summer show-stopper but has other attributes.

I like winter squash. This is Pilosella auranticum, I think maybe formerly Hieracium. It's an endangered flower in the U.K. I'm trying to grow all natives, but I can't part with this orange beauty. It's so fascinating because it thinks it's a strawberry and keeps making pups. Echinacea purpurea and Gomphrena 'Fireworks' and 'Carmine'. Calotropis procera. The new leaves look and feel like suede. Giant milkweed. Pink Oxypetalum solanoides and Blue Oxypetalum coerulea, and Ipomoea quamoclit. Nabalus album, Asteraceae Annual garden A few Campanula trachelium seedlings. One of them has splash variegation. Some native Lonicera. I rooted 2 cuttings from this vine. OurI Monarch butterfly
