The wood fence offers an infinity of options in its design. Here, its height has been adjusted to let through tree branches and plants, which blurs the mass created by the fence. One of the trends that is needed these days is the layout of the slats horizontally. If there is a rule to respect in the installation of a fence, it is not to make the star of your land.
In addition to the mixed hedges, the borders create a perspective, draw the garden, follow the paths. They are generally low, green and persistent. These are hedges cut from box or yew. Also opt for flowering with spirea, potentilla, lavender or St. John’s Wort. Create plant embroidery or indulge in topiary art for a classic garden thanks to Baldivis Landscaping Supplies.
All gardens do not have a so-called ordinary land, the one where the majority of shrubs for hedges like. No worries, the choice of shrubs for hedges is so vast that you will find shrubs that will accommodate and even please your soil that it is limestone (pH greater than 7), acid (pH less than 5.5, where the lack calcium), compact (clay soil asphyxiating when waterlogged).
Your soil is shallow (less than 30cm)? That does not matter, this type of soil does not prevent the azalea, the boxwood from developing there marvelously. At the edge of the water, in very wet soil, nothing prevents you from planting a hedge along the bank, to reinforce it and give it a decoration. Or on the contrary, in a dry ground, where you will have to favor species originating from the arid regions, generally adapted to the porous (sandy) and superficial grounds using Baldivis Landscaping Supplies.
The climate aspect is to take into consideration if you live in an extreme region: periods of vigorous cold, or on the contrary periods of drought. Similarly, at the seaside, the shrubs chosen for your hedge must be able to withstand spray like rosemary. And a hedge in the Mediterranean zone is composed of shrubs adapted to this climate such as mimosa.
Often purely utilitarian, sometimes motivated by a need for privacy, the fence nonetheless plays an important role in our landscaping. Beyond the good old Frost type fence, the landscape has changed in the last decades, and fashion is amalgam.
The fences are installed for security or privacy. The fence must not become the focal point of the landscaping, unless it is a really nice screen, nuance the landscape at Le Regard Vert. We try to reduce it, to blur it with plants, among others. People sometimes also use their fence to insert herbs and give it a practical feel.
