How to use climbers to create a private, secluded space with Arthur Parkinson - Episode 181

Arthur Parkinson’s urban garden is, like many in more built up areas,  somewhat overlooked by neighbours, and perhaps the most natural solution to this is with the help of some gorgeous climbers.

In this podcast episode, Sarah & Arthur focus on the varieties of clematis, honeysuckle, and other climbers which look stunning combined with the likes of hazel, corten, or even rebar.

In this episode, discover:

• How Arthur almost-accidentally discovered the way to use coppiced hazel to train clematis upwards
• A number of favourite varieties as better alternatives to hornbeams for creating privacy and separation
• Sarah & Arthur’s selection of climbers beyond the beloved clematis, namely the likes of thunbergias and Ipomoea lobata
