Hi Gerry, I would like to grow some climbers (Boston Ivy or Virgina Creeper with Varigated Ivy ) to climb up a trelis and cover the front of a Garage wall.I will need to grow these in a timber rectangular box I intend to make.... question is... how deep would the box need to be for these climbers, I am thinking 18" deep by about 12" wide....would that be big enough to support these climbers ?... thanks !!
