Catherine Smith on Mar 23, 2015How much sun does this area great regularly? For roses to do well, they need at least 6-8 hours of sun a day. Almost any climber would do well, just depends on your preference. You can use hooks made for brick to help hold the vines in place.Helpful Reply

Anita.goodacre on Mar 23, 2015I think it all depends on your climate, which way the shed faces etc. A good garden centre would be able to help or when you have decided which way the shed faces just type it in and often good ones come up. I find that sometimes other climbers look lovely growing through a rose, a clematis can flower at different times to a rose so you would have colour more of the time.Helpful Reply

Susan Gruss on Mar 23, 2015Roses need at least five hours of afternoon sun to grow decently. In northeastern Pennsylvania, the hardest most vigorous rose is "Ramblin Red" by far. " Henry Kelsey" and "William Baffin" are deep pink and " New Dawn" is a whitish pink. I combine every rose with another flowering vine like honeysuckle or clematis to extend bloom time. If it's easier consider climbing hydrangea which has a wonderful stem structure in winter.Helpful Reply

Moxie on Mar 23, 2015Also note that this end of the building is the gable end without gutter so the water will have a drip line near the building...many plants don't like wet feet so you may need to use a raised bed with drainage to help them drain faster.Helpful Reply

Lisa Kaplan Gordon on Mar 25, 2015I like the white. It blends so nicely. Here's a story about picking paint colors. It talks mainly about walls, but the tips apply to doors too. www.houselogic.com/home-advice/painting/how-to-pick-paint-color/?pred_search_link_clicked=How+to+Pick+Paint+Colors?eo_sm_sa_lkgHelpful Reply
