Transform a plain fence into a living wall using climbing vines and flowering plants
In short: Landscape contractor Roger Cook demonstrates how to enhance a simple fence by planting and training climbing vines. This guide provides the essential techniques and materials needed to support vertical growth effectively.
To create a vertical garden, you need to select appropriate climbing vines and flowering plants. The process involves installing 1-inch-diameter screw eyes into the fence to serve as anchor points for the vines to climb.
By training the plants along these supports, you can cover a plain surface with greenery and blooms. This method turns a standard fence into a decorative landscape feature.
