Honeysuckle doesn't mind a bit of shade. Also if it's the low shady wall on the left the small creeping purple campanula will spread and cover it. I've got some on a North-facing wall.

We have some Honeysuckle in the front garden, they seem to do OK in our soil, but not spectacularly.
I shall put Campanula on the list, we are probably going to do the small shady wall on the left, but also the bigger wall at the back, which is 1m high, 1m deep and just under 20m long, so needs a fair amount of coverage.

I’m looking for a plant recommendation.
We have a shady, damp area which is grasses, but the grass is struggling to take, so we are thinking of putting in a small border, with a fast climbing plant to cover the gabion basket and add a bit more colour. We were thinking of something like Boston Ivy for all year round colour, any other reccomendations?
