Yes most of them are vine like and they do trail and climb. Thats one of the many things I love about them.
Yeah hubby has his workshop. I have my garden and if I ever left the garden's for him to look after ,I am not sure if they any plants would survive

Those are some beautiful flowers you have there!!!
I love climbing flower of all types, hell i love flowers, hell i love all aspects of gardening since i started my own grow, so much i cant wait to start
my fall semster at college getting my bachelors in wildlife biology/ecology. I plan to specialize in horticulture and botany. A good climbing flower is morning glories(the best part is watching them close throughout the light cycle in the room or you can trip on them if you want TOO!!!) or climbing roses are a favorite of mine. On one of my vegging room's wall, i put a chicken wire fence along the wall with a 1/2" spacer so that i can use the leftover light to grow my vine plants, Cucmbers, roses and Morning glory. Otherwise the only other additions to my veg room are Calla Lillies(for the ladies), and some wild Michigan Lily bulbs(and rhizomes) i dug out of the woods(just planted in a few days ago).

Cool. I have my BA in science also but specialized in diet and nutrition.
I love climbing roses and have about 6 of them plus I used to always plant morning glory seeds each spring at the front of the house but unfortunately it is a house brick wall and in the intense heat the wilt for a while and look ghastly.
Now I have my jackmanis there instead.
The climbing roses I have paired with clematis. On one end of my back deck I have 2 climbing roses and 3 climatis and it looks stunning come mid summer.
I have also planted cucumbers and sweetpeas which love lovely as well.
Thanks for contributing your thoughts and ideas twinturbo.
Cool.love the name.

OMG I just saw the canna lily part and have to tell you a funny story about mine.
I have a very long driveway and had over a hundred canna lily bulbs that I needed to plant so decided to plant them there.
At the time we had a german shepherd and she kept stepping on them and breaking off the top shoots. I knew that she was scared of balloons so I got a few packages of them and blew them all up and tied them onto a string that ran all the way down the driveway. It looked hilarious and people thought I was having a big party or something
But it worked and keep my dog out and I had the most beautiful row of 4 to 5 foot canna lilies going down my driveway.
I wish i had the pic on this computer or i would add one but I don't.
It was funny.

OMG!!! 226 different types.????
Wow. that is a lot of them. I am just starting to get into hostas myself. I love them also.
I am really anxious to get out in mine as well. We got snow a couple of nights ago and still have about 1 to 2 feet of snow here.
I know. it sucks. i want to trim all my clematis down but I have no place to put all the vines. The firepit is covered still
