Son 1 and I took the increasingly elderly Raja for a walk on the Coulée Verte this evening. After a cool day (not above 25°C) she was full of energy and we had a great time - and the combination of these wild climbers was a beautiful sight.
My mum loved 'things climbing through things' in her garden, and I feel that these three live up well to her philosophy of gardening! They were very high up - we won't be able to pick the blackberries when they come, but they do look like they're going to be juicy...

There is nothing lovelier than flowering things climbing and twining. I do agree with your mum;s philosophy. I'm working hard at training clematis and roses to do that too.
It's definitely berry pinking season! I wish a berry picker would make a cobbler and invite me over for tea!
Don't we always think of our dear parents? My sweet dad passed away this month and I've been thinking of him so much.
I so agree with Barbara (Elizabethd) climbing plants add a dimension to the garden and often scent and vivid colour too.
I am currently nurturing 2 yellow jasmines over an arch in my garden and waiting for an orange Campsis that I thought was dead to bring forth a flower among its abundant leaves!

Yes there is definitely something magical about climbing and twining plants. Although we are only just basking in sunshine, my thoughts are on Autumn already!

Blackberries are enchanting, it makes me feel like I'm in wonderland.
Enjoy the rest of summer.
