I want to train a clematis up a narrow section of brick wall.
For my roses I use heavy duty green wire + concrete screws with washers. For my (evergreen) star jasmine I use a mix of things, including chicken wire (which is great for that sort of thing BTW).
I'd like something more discreet.
I was thinking about 3 vertical lines of wire and painting smaller screws and washers with some black outdoor paint, or using some old rusted screws and Japaning the washers...anyway that I can work out.
But what wire do I use? Is there a good thin guage stainless or galvanised wire that will be strong enough to handle the tension?
Ideally something I can order easily like from ebay.
Cheers.
