How can I halp my jasmine to climb up the columns on my porch w/out sliding to the ground?

Last year I planted three confederate jasmine plants in front of the columns on my back porch. The jasmine has grown profusely and is circling the columns, but unlike ivy, it doesn't have the little "suckers" to help it to cling to the smooth columns. Any advice to kep it growing up the length of the column instead of lying in a pile on the ground?

yes you can buy a trellis and and train it to climb the trellis
Reply:Jasmine is a twiner not a clinging type of vine. So you need to tie it in. You can use a soft string or even ladies tights cut into strips to tie it with. Hope this helps.
Reply:Try attaching bird netting to the post. This will not rust like metal or stain like copper but will give the plant something to cling to. This way, if you ever decide to change your plant, you can easily remove the mesh without too much damage to the post.
Reply:Jasmine requires copper wire to train onto a column. Get about a 10 foot piece and wind that around the column, then tie off the Jasmine and it will spread between winds. Be sure to use copper wire, not steel wire.
