Continuing with the foliage theme, I figured I'd post a picture of the bit of landscaping I'm not planning on ripping out when I redo the front and back lawns. This is a really particularly awesome bit of vines and ... err, flowering tree stuff stuck back in the corner of our lot. It also includes the third huge tree on our lot.
And that thing isn't, you know, going anywhere.

So I was watching day-time TV today and saw a special on climbing roses. Thats what you need, climbing roses.
Totally sweet idea. I dig.
