Here they get out of hand even the passion flower I have gets out of hand .But passion flower on a gutter would look nice as long as you protect the roots in the winter

I like Clematis and the variety that you can cut down right before Spring every year is nice as then it starts out all fresh and not like the kind you can't cut down and gets all snarled up. Think you'd have to tie it on tho as it grows up the gutter. Are you wanting something that you don't have to mess w/ that much?
