Need help with my garden
Comments (8)If you want your garden to be dominated by the new cabin then go for pale colours which will stand out. I would want it to look further away and would stain it black (or very dark grey) with grey deck around it which sets off the numerous greens in the garden really well. I would also Put a layer of planting in front of it so it creates a secondary area of garden. A simple block of tall grasses planted en masse for example. Gardens are the opposite of houses, adding rooms makes them feel bigger!...See MoreIve got an eyesore of a shed
Comments (3)Screen it. You can get decorative ones, metal ones, trellis style ones, or you can be creative and make your own from pallets or scrap wood. Just ensure that it is treated for outdoor weather conditions. Here’s some inspo: (click on pics to enlarge).

Comments (11)Consider the following: Remove the existing small trellis from the wall; Paint the rendered part of the stack in a dark colour; Trellis the rendered part of the stack above the bend - make it substantial to ensure coverage; Install a tall statement pot at the base of the stack; Plant and grow jasmine up the support (choose from winter or summer flowering); Enjoy the lovely fragrance when you exit to your outdoor space and admire the pale delicate star shaped flowers....See MoreHelp with ugly wall at bottom of garden
Comments (12)Okay being a sunny spot means you can grow a lot more. Vigorous climbers that are beautiful are Clematis Montana (my previous first pic) and Rambler Roses, Honeysuckle, Jasmine (Jasminum officinale) and Pyracantha. Climbing Roses and other forms of Clematis are less vigorous but great fillers. All will need tying in and training but no real hardship. You can read up about sun loving climbers on the RHS website. Many of these plants have gorgeous scents as well, especially the Honeysuckle and Jasmine. Wisteria is a stunning winding plant that needs to be thoroughly tied in, but it is gorgeous.
