On today’s program, we’ll explore using plants and trees to create eco-friendly “green barriers,” which can provide added seclusion, noise reduction, and enhanced visual appeal to our outdoor spaces. We’ll begin with hedges, also known as living fences! “Firstly, there are three important things that hedges can do that fences can’t. They can capture air pollution. They help benefit wildlife. And, they also prevent flooding.” There are many hedge options to suit the desired height, texture, and aesthetic appearance of your living fence or boundary. The cherry laurel is low maintenance and fast-growing, and produces white flowers and berries enjoyed by bees and bird-citizens. The western red cedar is an effective pollution absorber. Its dense foliage can minimize heavy winds. When crushed, the green leaves release a pineapple-like fragrance. The American holly is visually stunning and has symbolized peace, goodwill, and hope in various cultures for thousands of years. Also, its branches are great for craft projects during Christmastime. Countless more shrub and conifer varieties can be grown as privacy hedges. Before planting, please research which species are best for your location, as well as their daily sunlight and maintenance needs. Another way to create a living fence is by weaving together the branches of the quick-growing willow plant. For larger properties and farmland, hedgerows can be a fantastic border option. Hedgerows combine the growth of shrubs and trees to form large living walls. These living structures provide privacy and shade while protecting crops from natural pollutants and harmful chemicals sprayed on adjacent farms. Do you need to fence off a small outdoor space, such as a storage area for garbage, compost, or recycling bins? Well, dead hedging is a wonderful solution. We’ll now share two final cost-effective ways to add privacy to your outdoor spaces from the YouTube Channel, “Garden Project Academy.” One is growing vines on trellises.
