What Climbing plants should I grow on a fence that separates our cattle pasture from our backyard?

Obviously, whatever I plant cannot be poisonous to the cattle! I'd like something that they won't eat, or at least will mostly not eat. I could use blackberry vines, but I'd really like something pretty and fairly low maintenance. I live in the Sacramento Valley - very hot and dry summers, mild, wet winters.

  1. How about Bougainvillea or Jasmine Vines I think either one would be safe. Maybe both together would be really pretty and I love the fragrance.

    Yellow Jasmine is more drought tolerant.

  2. climbing rose

  3. grapes, they are not only pretty but they grow fast, just find some nice ones that grow in your area, they are simple to grow, and you have the benefit of fruit,

  4. Don't even bother, as the cattle will chew down anything! I lived on a farm all my life & I tried different things over the years but the cows aren't fussy, they'll chew anything!
