Ideas to increase fence height
Comments (7)Thanks very much for the suggestions. I think we might go for willow screening for a short term fix & if we like it, could be the answer until the fence needs replaced. It would also help disguise the current lack of symmetry if we cover the whole fence. Bamboo is an interesting suggestion but I'm a bit concerned about my ability to keep it under control. Definitely one for me to think about, as it could look great if I get it right....See MoreNew cedar fence

Comments (7)Virburnum tinus - evergreen shrub with white flowers in winter/spring There is a great Story on Houzz by Patricia Tyrrell called something like 10 trees suitable for a small garden which may help. It’s just that a lot of trees grow enormous with time and can engulf a garden. I’ve noticed one of your neighbours has already put one in. There aren’t many evergreen trees unless you go down the conifer route which can be a minefield! There are many shrubs that grow to 8-10 feet which may suit your garden. The RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) have a great website where you can search for Tall Evergreen Shubs, for example. They also tell you how easy, or not, they are to grow. I see a lot of pleached trees on Houzz etc, but I’ve read they do need shaping and training to keep them in check, so do need maintenance, Heres a few evergreen shrubs that may fit the bill. Ceanothus - evergreen with blue flowers in May Mahonia - evergreen with fragrant yellow flowers in spring Mallow - evergreenish with pink flowers in summer...See MoreFence and Decking Colour
Comments (13)I think a winding path with shrubs and tall grasses at intervals would be lovely in your garden, and give a feeling of "what's around the corner?". If you are painting I would make the back of the garden and one fence side darker to create some width and depth. The other side could be a lighter colour like the blue or even bright orange if you want to blend with your neighbour's. I used Cuprinol Shades in Willow on one of my boundaries and it is beautiful winter and summer as a backdrop to planting , and in its own right. Don't use cheap stuff , you will rue the day when you have to repaint it all again because of flaking. A good quality paint in a couple of ciates will last 3 to 5 years. If you don't load the brush too much at the creases you will avoud runs going through the other side. Oil your deck once a year with a natural or lightly coloured deck stain and it will last and look beautiful . Enjoy...See MoreCelery. Visualization, Rendering images
