I have a question ...

I am wanting to grow clematis with roses, but my dilemma is that I need to grow them in a container. Can they BOTH be combined in one container. I have a 10 gallon pot that I was wanting to use. Is that possible to do a climbing rose and a clematis together in one container? Or are their roots too extensive to put them both together like that? I know clematis can be fertlized with Rose fertilizer.

Something that I have created in my yard is a cattle panel arbor. It's galvanized steel and we just use the U-shaped fencing nails to attach the bent panel to four posts. I am wanting to grow roses and clematis together on one of my cattle panel arbors as well as the white arbor shown in this photo.
