Gates can enclose your gardens, yet be inviting.

Overhead screens of vines can offer much needed shade, and a free standing planter can break up a boring wall, as well as extending the vertical garden.

Panels can be classic or funky! 
Make your space private and cozy. Screen just a corner, or the whole garden.  Enjoy.

  1. That's a nice variety of options you've shown! I'm giving Boston Ivy a try and hope I don't regret it!

  2. Yes lots of options. I do have my privacy fence but have also surrounded the back perimeter with flowering shrubs. Just waiting for them to all grow up now.
