Hello. I am looking at getting a climbing plant of some sort to cover my west and south facing walls.
Problem being that the house is surrounded by 1m (wide not deep) of concrete. This can't be removed because it surrounds the drains and water pipes etc.
So with this in mind any options or advice would be great.
I don't want Ivy for the obvious sucker/wall damage problems, maybe something that turns red in the autumn.
Are there any 'creepers/clingers that do not require ground or container planting that would cling to wires fixed into the walls? If not how big would the container pots need to be around the bottom of the walls?
