Can't see a pic but sounds like you need some sort of fruit netting - most garden centres have them !

Personally, I think if you have a sunny deck, you can go wrong with an exotic look. I recommend going with a variety of foliage plants to offer year round colour as a structure. Acers work well, maybe a tree fern to add drama, phormiums, hardy palms, Pittosporum, Cotinus (smoke bush), some edging of hostas then some winter colour with a climber like winter jasmin and pyracantha for any boundaries to add security. I would also add a structure adding height like a pergola and a vibrant golden hop growing over it?

I think Photinia would get too large and unruly for planters on top of the walls. They need managing otherwise they get very large and have a very loose form. Personally I'd opt for something that is more consistent in form and shape without too much upkeep and provides an attractive green backdrop to your beautiful house rather than competing with it for attention! Something like Buxus or Japanese box (Euonymus Green Rocket) as alternative to avoid issues with Box blight. Alternatively Privet is a good reliable evergreen hedger particular well suited to urban situations as they tolerate pollution. Either way its worth adding some water retaining granules and slow release fertiliser to the soils to give them a boost. At least you're planting at a good time to avoid stressing them in the dry summer months. Good luck!

Our house is very cosy. I love coming inside after shutting the hens away at night, locking the doors and feeling warm and cocooned tucked away from the outside world. When I go outside in the evening I often hear owls hooting to each other which is just magical.

I like the look of the base. What is it? Looks similar to DG, has a loose aggregate on the top.
