Kingfisher Self Assembly Garden Arch For Climbing Plants & Roses

Product Information

Roses are indispensable in the garden for looks and scent, and there are a huge range of super fragrant climbing types to choose from, like dark pink Rosa ‘Gertrude Jekyll’, or pale pink ‘The Generous Gardener’, both of which will repeat flower through summer if deadheaded. Climbers can be pruned in late winter. BUY NOW Vertical growing isn’t restricted to ornamental plants – many edible crops can be grown against a fence or up an arch. Courgettes and squash can be grown this way. My favourite squash to grow over a sunny arch is the long, sweet and extremely prolific tromboncino. This evergreen climber, combined with a star-shaped flower head, will stand out to your friends when they see your garden arch decorated with this plant. The intense, sweet aroma of the white flowers’ blossoms between mid to late summer.

These are well suited to climb walls and ceilings and also for container growing. The main thing to keep in mind before planting this is to make sure to keep the foot of the plant in the shade while the head grows towards the sun. Growing plants up a pergola, arch or trellis will add different levels to your garden. Creating different levels in a garden adds a third dimension and that makes the garden look far more interesting. It also allows you to grow a wider range of plants and brings them closer to eye and nose height and this very important when it comes to fragrance.Clematis armandii is a fast-growing evergreen climber that will happily scramble over trellis, pergolas and arches. It does need to be tied in and pruned a couple of times a year to keep it shapely, but it retains its glossy green leaves throughout the year, and rewards you with star-shaped, scented flowers in spring. Plant the roots in shade and prepare for the stem to get woody over time, so neat training from the start is a must. What climbing vine stays green all year round? Bring a colourful and bombastic plant to the rest of your garden arch with a passion flower (Passiflora) which is surprisingly easy to grow in the UK. All it needs is plenty of shelter and sunlight, the passion flower will blossom well and bring an exotic appearance to your garden arch. Its common names are star jasmine or confederate jasmine (which refers to the Greater Malayan Confederation because the plant hails from Southeast Asia). However, be aware that the star jasmine, which we recommend here, is vulnerable to severe frosts. 6 Morning Glory

Unique selling point! 8 Roses Plants on pergolas need to have pliable stems and some of the best, for example wisteria, have pendent flowers that cascade downwards creating a waterfall effect. It’s important to choose the right plant, one that will thrive in the conditions whether it be bright sunshine or dappled shade. Height and vigour also play their part.If you're feeling adventurous, try growing some squash or gourds on your archway,' adds Gail. 'As long as the structure can support their weight, they'll thrive. Walking under an archway with squash or gourds hanging down is sure to be a conversation starter. Butternut, Delicata, and Sugar Pie Pumpkins are a few of my favorite squash plants that grow well vertically.' Forest Garden's Ryeford arch is an elegant timber arch with classic trellis side panels to really help your climbing plants get established, and a pleasing curved top section with notched rafters. Passion flower vines bring instant drama to the garden,’ says Oregon-based landscape architect and garden designer Bethany Rydmark. ‘The Passiflora genus boasts more than 500 species from around the world, and discovering your favorite show-stopping flower can be a personal quest for the adventurous gardener. While some passion flowers are native to the tropics and South America, the Native American tribes made use of the beautiful blooms and fruits of Passiflora incarnata, known as Maypop, whose common name perhaps comes from the sound of prolific fruits underfoot.’
