    Hi all,
    I was lloking to get some vines for the trellis on the front of my deck. The space is pretty hot and dry in the summer, although I can water the space easy enough. Can anyone recommend a good vine for Zone 3?

    Thanks!!

    A hardy lonicera or clematis would be my choice.

    hello nails...clematis is a good one but make sure the roots are kept cool.. place some stones around the base of the plants.. other plants you can consider climbing roses. buttercup ivy ( new growth turn bright yellow)
