Another nice one that has losts of flowers (no perfume though) is Plumbago. And Honeysuckle has to be my all time fave. So is there a chance you could have more than on type on this trellis?

If you are looking for a climber that is quite bushy, and hardy in winter, I can recommend Ranulph Fiennes

haha your witty tonight ;)

You don't want to rely on Sir Ranulph as a climber. He might be better for ground cover.:D
On May 24, 2008, Fiennes had to abandon an attempt to be the oldest Briton to climb Mount Everest, being forced to turn back from exhaustion after reaching the final stopping point in a climb for charity. The adventurer, who is receiving treatment for prostate cancer, was suffering with heart problems and vertigo, a spokesman reported. Wikipedia
;):D ;)
-
you can look passiflora.Turkish name is çarkifelek.Magnificent flower!!
-
Bourganvilia is the best one!
It is begonvil in Turkish.
-
Passion flower is also a good one, beautiful strange looking flowers and you can also eat the fruit.

Amazing even Scunner looked at this topic, He concreted over his last two gardens:D
Why not try grape vines? ;)
