Hello everyone,

I've just joined and I'm hoping that someone out there will be able to help us.

I've recently erected a sturdy trellis above the dividing wall between my neighbours and our rear yards. I am desperate to find something to grow up and along the trellis which will:

1) Grow very quickly
2) Provide dense coverage all year round (we don't get on with our neighbours I'm afriad)
3) Still provide colour and ideally something that flowers
4) Will grow in containers (my back yard is concreted)

Does anyone have any ideas? If so, I'd really appreciate it if you'd share them. I have attached a picture.

I've never grown anything so I'm only learning. I've got as far as ivy and clematis (montana, armandii) but although I read that these can grow big, I don't know how fast they grow. I don't care about maintenance, we just want to screen our yard from next door as soon as possible.

Thank you
Chris
