Advice needed colorful creepers

mooneyd

Hey all,

Im looking for help in choosing a creeper to be out into a trellis in my back garden. The section of walls sees direct sunlight for 3 hours per day and then indirect/shade for the rest of the day.

I'm looking for something that has a nice bit of colour to it so either really interesting leaves or something that flowers and Ideally provide a thick coverage.

Any suggestions? Bonus points if you can suggest somwhere in the Dublin/Kildare area that stocks it

Clematis, saw them in Lidl last week.

RHS AGM lists are good for ideas

Virginia creeper for good autumn colour and also I like honeysuckle if you are more impressed by nice summer flowers. Neither option is evergreen and the vigorous ivy varieties available might be an option if that is important. I also like the display of the red berry pyracantha that can be trained to grow like a climber. Johnstown garden centre in Naas have a range of climbers to choose from.
