What is the name for a plant that grows up a wall?
Climbers and wall shrubs are a brilliant way to liven up dull walls, fences, obelisks and supports throughout the garden, especially when planting space is limited. These shrubs can transform a dull wall, clothing it in attractive foliage, flowers and often berries.
