Hi - would welcome some suggestions for tallish shrubs.
My neighbours have removed the 4ft fence out the front separating our two gardens and replaced it with a (just under) 3ft wall.
That's all fine, they did it with my permission (although it is much lower than they said it was going to be) BUT ... they keep their bins and motorbikes in the front garden which I don't really want to see. So I have put trellis along the wall (with their permission) and it's really pretty and now comes up to 5ft.
I would like to screen it even more with some tallish shrubs, evergreen if possible.
The problem is that they poured concrete all along the footings of the wall so I can no longer plant anything in the ground BUT I do have five pots that I can use.
They can't be massive pots as our path (which I don't have the money to relocate) is just 22cm away from the wall!
Ideas please! I'd also thought about some climbers, like an evergreen jasmine, but not sure if they would be happy in 22cm wide pots :-)
