We wondered if we shouldn't have built our own picket fence from wood, and then had to paint it every couple of years. Nah! Although the vinyl fence doesn't seem as sturdy, it will look nicer a lot longer. Once the posts were in (and Kevin very wisely put the caps on them--since they were hollow--before the major rains), the fencing sections went in quite quickly.And a view from the backyard of the finished fence...
When we drew up the plans for the gardens, I had forgotten about the slope. So I'll probably do the flower beds in segments, to correspond with the level of the fence section. And, we'll probably just do bushes on the inside of the fence to increase the privacy of the backyard.
Wow, guys, looks really good. I'm impressed.
ReplyDeletewell, well, well. It looks great! I like the arbor close to the house... should be an easy replacement for the stepping stone path that will no longer suffice. I don't think you'll need to garden in segments in front if you don't want to; the original way could make it look more harmonious. How exciting!
