I have been nursing two climbing roses on a trellis for a few years now. They grow and bloom okay... but they've never really thrived there and I'm getting tired of babying them along. I want a tough plant that will grow and cover the trellis. The soil is not the best. It's clay and dries out terrible in the summer. I'm sure that's why the roses have not done well. Will a sweet autumn clematis do okay there?
