I've moved into a new home with a really uninspiring green rectangle for a garden, and I just don't know where to begin.
Help from more experienced gardeners would be very appreciated!
Here's the shopping list:
- I'd hope to mostly screen the back houses (for their privacy as much as ours)
- I'm cautious of planting any larger trees that would overhang into the neighbour's garden
- On the left hand side I'd like to plant anything tall that doesn't need a trellis (so as to add some privacy)
Things to note...
It's south facing.
I'm inexperienced but very committed to maintenance.
I have a toddler so need to keep a bit of space for play gear
Happy to spend a fair amount to get there
I've added a few photos, one as it is now and a couple with my doodled ideas. The shape still feels boring and uninspired - I just don't know how to bring any flair.
