    Very good article. I have bought a Parthenocissus quinquefolia and it will be in a large pot to cover a wall of the terrace that is sunny most of the day. The base of the pot is very soulless and I had thought about planting some daisies there. They are compatible? Better if I plant some grass? I am looking for a plant that has similar irrigation and substrate and would greatly appreciate the help. Thanks in advance!
