Hi all, a question for those experianced here.

Having recently moved into a new build house, j have started to get the garden together, but I have one problem aera.

At the end of our garden is next doors garage. This wall faces south east (ish). It gets some sun, but because of the size of houses surrounding it also gets quite a bit of shade.

I woud like to grow something on this wall, I would like some fruit or something we can eat.

Because of the ground it will probably need to be from a tub (concrete along that wall)

I thought maybe raspberry trained along it, but that needs a lot of support wires. I also concidered kiwi but will that train up to cover the wall?

Any thoughts and ideas on what I could do ?

Many thanks
