A 'Want to be' Gardener needs planting ideas!
Comments (3)A local garden store or designer will certainly be able to help you. In the meantime, you can look up ideas online, but you'll need to know some basic information before anyone can help you choose specific plants. The first and most important is to know your planting zone, which is all about your location and climate. You also need to know the directional orientation of your house and the wall, and whether it is "full sun", "partial sun", or "shade". Will you be planting on both sides of the wall? You may wind up with vastly different plants if one side gets full sun and the other is in the shade. Take into consideration whatever shade is cast by the large tree, and the house itself. If you have the time, spend a day taking pictures of both sides of the wall - maybe once an hour (shadows will shift somewhat throughout the season), so you may want to do this every few weeks and keep a visual log of how the shadows move. Also, before you plant, decide if you want to paint the wall. It will be easier to paint before you plant, of course. White will reflect heat back onto plants. Climbing plants would look nice on the wall, if you're not going with a very structured garden. Ivy is an obvious choice, but there are other vines that flower beautifully, if you like that idea....See MoreFront Entry ideas?

Comments (0)Hi All We are getting a pool and will be using the boundary fence on one side. The boundary fence is 1.8m in height. The interior fence is 1.2m. The issue is the junction where the two fence meets. The rules is that there must be a 900mm non climable zone vertically from the top of the boundary. Where the two fences meet currently there is only 600mm clearance. Any advice would be great. How do people solve this issue? Please share your ideas and photos Thanks...See Moremacyjean
