Thread: Fence problem

    I understand completely. But it would help keep your fence up and you would not have to constantly be worring about putting it up.

    I see what you mean and I probably will grow a climber up the fence, but not ivy as the fence borders my neighbours garden and she would not be pleased about ivy intruding into her garden.

    What about a Lilac bush? You could have the nice scent, block the view, and the neighbors probably wouldn't mind it nearly as much as they would mind the Ivy!

    I have two lilac bushes growing on that side of the garden, so another one would fit in well and you are right the neighbour likes them. They are almost trees rather than bushes, I think I have let them get too high, they are about 7ft - 8ft.

    We have high winds and a 6ft fence that has no problems with them. However it is a sturdy slatted fence with a 2 inch gap between each board. If you still need a good fence, getting one which is designed to let the wind pass through might be just as good as getting trellis (which can be really flimsy)!

    Maybe you just need a stronger/better constructed fence?
