Imbue your landscape with another layer of privacy by dividing it into garden rooms. When you can't see your entire backyard from one vantage point, it feels more secluded -- and offers guests a sense of mystery as they explore around the next corner.
Put Your Attention Where it Matters
Small yards can be easier to screen than large yards. If you have too much area to put up a fence or hedge within your budget, start small and concentrate on creating privacy where you need it most, such as around a deck or patio. You can always expand your plans in future years.
Container gardens can be a delightful substitute for a wall or fence. Here, for example, Brian and Robert planted a tall container with a tree-form hydrangea. Together the plant and container reach about 6 feet tall; of course, as the hydrangea grows, the height will increase.
Make It Look Good on Both Sides
Don't forget to add a little landscaping around the outside of your private area. It doesn't have to be anything elaborate. A simple viburnum with mondo grass and a Japanese maple make the fence look great to passersby.
Even on their corner lot, Brian and Robert created a private retreat. We hope their tips help you do the same in your yard!
