    I did think about trellis and I'll ask her if she minds me attaching it to the walls.

    If she doesn't want the wall drilled into, you could get some large pots and grow a selection of tall plants in them.

    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Probably the best option - if I was the owner I'd be concerned about trellis and any climbing plants not being maintained and overrunning the wall. Pots can just be moved.

    Get consent in writing if you plan to do anything to neighbour's wall. I does not belong to you.
