But I've always thought that it liked cool roots. The screen is on asphalt. Do you think if I elevated the container with some bricks and then put the clematis in it that it would work?

I have a lot of clematis that I could root for this purpose, so it's not like I'd be wasting a lot of money. Just my effort.

I have some interesting books on vertical gardening. I'll look them up for you and post back.
