    Hi all

    I am motivated but clueless in the garden.

    Any ideas on what to do with this to make it look good on the fence and potentially to have it grow down without making our tiny garden smaller?

    Thanks!

    Charlie

    Hi Charlie, and welcome to GC :sign0016:

    I am not sure what the plant is atop your fence, but unless it is some sort of clematis like montana, I reckon you will struggle to get it to grow downwards - no harm in trying to train it down by using garden twine to tie some of the overhanging ends to the fence, but I suspect it will just turn and head for the sky at every opportunity.
