We recently bought a house in Idaho, with 12 1/2 acres. We're moving from Utah in stages. I grew MG along about 80 feet of fence in UT, to block out my neighbor who wouldn't stay out of my business, and it was gorgeous. I have no close neighbors here in Idaho, but I'm not willing to give up MG! It's one of my favorite plants! I'm bringing all of my trellis with me to have something to grow it on, but just had a thought. We have a very steep hillside, and I have flung wildflower seeds all over the place. No idea if they will grow, since I can't exactly water them. I love the idea of growing MG inside, but was thinking that maybe I should plant some on the hillside too. I can imagine that it would be stunning!

This probably isn't the right place to post my question, but if I plant the seeds at the top of the hill, will they grow down the hill? It wouldn't exactly be like a hanging plant, since it's not a cliff, but if I have to plant them at the bottom of the hill so that they will grow up the hill, it won't work. I can't easily get down there to water, and there are lots of ticks as I found out yesterday when spreading the wildflower seeds. So, I'd prefer to not have to venture back down the hill unless I'm running from a fire!

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Natalie
