Climbing plants are among the most versatile plants in the garden, but they are often overlooked as gardeners are unaware of where they might be used.

For those who want to build special features on which to display climbers, there are a number of practical projects included.
There are even suggestions for where vegetable or indoor gardeners may make use of climbers.With sumptuous photographs and easy-to-understand text, "Choosing and Using Climbing Plants" offers gardeners a wealth of information on this varied group of plants and even the most novice gardener will learn how to beautify their plot rapidly and with the minimum of expense.
