Vines can be trained to grow along walls and fences, up arches and pergolas, and encouraged to cover out buildings or dead or unattractive trees and structures. Many offer outstanding foliage, colorful berries and fruits, and some display phenomenal blossoms. Vines do demand training and attention in the beginning to ensure proper anchoring to surfaces.

If a vine is too messy for an area where a climber is desired, you may wish to add an espalier. An espalier is a tree(s) or shrub(s) that has been trained and pruned to grow in flat, regular or irregular, pattered lines along a wall or fence that adds an unusual and formal look to any wall. The most common types of plants for espaliering are fruit trees. Espaliering allows those with little lot room to benefit from the beauty of some of the larger trees and shrubs. If an espalier might interest you, see a LYP associate to get information on what is available for the season.
