Is there a flowering, scented, climbing plant that I can grow up an existing metal frame on the west wall of my south facing conservatory. please?
Yes, there are many options here. There are many orchids, roses, honeysuckle, and many many more that will do just fine. Visit an online seedbank and they will have all sorts of plants that can either be bought from seed, or shipped live.
Greetings, We are looking for a moderately walkable ground cover that is fast growing, deer resistant and does well in shade. We are in plant hardiness zone 8. Any suggestions? Deb and Jim

What is a good plant for ground cover for an area that has poor soil and nothing grown for several years? It is a long and narrow planter area and I want a ground cover type that requires very little maintenance and upkeep. Thank you.
This really depends on your area, and what the temperatures are like. What zone are you in?
I want to grow a climber on a tv antenna tower. Postition is in a lawned area, so it cannot be too competitive. It is in sun most of the day, a sheltered area (house and fence on two sides). Looking for easy care and quick growing. Located in South Australia . Hot dry climate (summers of 40 degrees celcius, some frosts in winter)
I recommend something called clematis! There are many cultivars available in many colors. They will do quite well in your area. Here is an article for more information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/vines/clematis/growing-clematis.htm
I live in North County San Diego, and want to plant a vine type flowering plant along a fence, in full sun. What do you suggest that doesn't take a lot of care and blooms here through Fall to Spring? I have considered Plumbago or Mandevilla. Anything else? Donna O.
Some more ideas: California pipevine, American wisteria (not nearly as big as the Chinese and Japanese wisteria), passion flower vine, and star jasmine. Mandevilla needs some afternoon shade. Plumbago auriculata is listed as fully hardy in zones 9-11. However, it is more a shrub than a vine. The branches will only climb a fence if you manually attach it as it grows.
What ground covers will thrive in densely shaded areas with good loose soil, good moisture and in USDA climate zone 6.
There are several choices for this. These two articles will get you started:

We have a grove of trees and bramble. I would like to find some flower that would come back yearly and could handle the shade. Thanks
