6. Training climbing plants for best effect


Remember that horizontal growth encourages plenty of flowering side shoots, so tie stems of woody plants into position when they're young and pliable. Then you'll have a beautiful show plus good coverage of the wall.


Left to their own devices, most plants tend to grow straight up, rather than out, and flower only at the top.
