Hi guys it’s been a while, but I’m back again for some advise. I’m currently and have been for sometime deliberating what colour to paint my front and back garden fences. Currently it’s a dark brown, which I painted last year but I’m not entirely convinced I like it, previously it was a lovey reddish colour not too bright left by my neighbor but as I wasn’t sure which red, I just abandoned the idea as I’ve seen some really bright reds which I’m not keen on. Having read a number of online blogs my understanding is that dark colours drop into the background and set off the plants. An alternative colour I have been thinking of is black, I really do like this as an idea and I have a fairly decent size garden not too big but definitely not small. My fences are really low and not the nicest of fences so I intend on changing them in the near future but in the interim I would like to spruce them up. I have light brick walls the kinda of yellow tone so want to complement the colour fence with the walls. Oh and my garden is south facing. Any ideas welcome.
