Lauren: Yes, gutter trellises really come in handy. I have the ones from Lee Valley, http://www.leevalley.com/garden/page.aspx?c=2&p=10442&cat=2,... Thanks for providing the link, psychw2. My brain wasn't remembering where I had purchased mine from.....another senior moment! Sigh!!

Here's a picture of Clematis, texensis, "Lady Bird Johnson" climbing up one of the gutter trellises that I surrounded my mail box post with. Sorry that you can't see the actual gutter trellis, but I was focusing on the beautiful Clematis blooms. I'll keeping searching to see if I can find a photo showing the trellis.
