Can I Plant A Climber (honeysuckle Or Jasmin) With Peas Or Beans?

Question

I have a planter and want to create a screen using a climber. While the climber is growing, can I also plant peas or beans in the same planter to create the screen while the climber gradually grows ?

Answer 1

You can, but the issue is that if planted together, the climber and the vegetable will be competing for nutrients and water. They will both be young and growing and it may hinder growth. If the planter is very large, it will probably be okay. If you will have to crowd them in the container, you might try putting the peas or beans in a separate, smaller container.
