Trellis netting? I've noticed several offers online for those. It's described as 5'x30', almost invisible nylon netting with 5"x7" openings.

My friend grew morning glory vines at the side and rear of her home to keep the heat outside, where it belonged.

I'm doing the same with passiflora this year...with cucumbers and squash trellised a bit further out to the south. It's quite a space saving deal right now, but I'm not so sure I didn't overfill the space...we'll see. At least it's helping to shade a hot spot...where there used to be a huge shade tree. Smiling
I should have painted the old gate first, before I put it up, but ...maybe next year. I wasn't sure about this plant, so I just considered it a trial-run this year. Maybe I'll get some of the clear netting next year, too...I like it!
