And this garden of yours - I'm looking forward to watching it grow. <br /><br />PS I've just been eyeing up the potential of an old CD tower to use as a support for climbers.<br /><br />Cheers<br />JeneaneLady Mondegreen's Secret Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07638813551209321151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212817062207309616.post-74425515674783880762012-02-11T07:14:30.396-06:002012-02-11T07:14:30.396-06:00I can't wait for your project to start taking ...I can't wait for your project to start taking shape and for you to share the pictures. Just a couple of words of warning from my experience. Be careful about old wood. It looks good at first when older wood is used, but it doesn't take too long for it to deteriorate to look not so good. If you have larger pieces of rusty machinery, take care on sharp edges and find a variety of colourful climbers to entwine themselves through the metal to provide the beautiful contrasts. Good luck - an exciting prospect to look forward to!<br />XXRarelesserspottedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15865928245970626612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212817062207309616.post-63588168357671964242012-02-10T20:42:26.439-06:002012-02-10T20:42:26.439-06:00Luffa Gourds for climbing.

There a...I'm really into ornamental and edible. There are some types of nasturtiums that climb and they have lovely orange and red blossoms with those round leaves. Hyssop is a favorite too since it grows as big as a bush, has lavender colored flower spikes and attracts tons of bees (the good kind) and butterflies. I used the dried leaves as a tarragon substitute this year and it was very nice!Abbeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212817062207309616.post-80159592151706583832012-02-10T07:18:50.129-06:002012-02-10T07:18:50.129-06:00OK -- I have a chair identical to yours.

It tends to smother other nearby colours. However, white flowers are OK.Cro Magnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840670227576695352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212817062207309616.post-52280823725234482162012-02-09T21:22:42.689-06:002012-02-09T21:22:42.689-06:00Susan.
