We are having to install a new security fencing around our

allotment.
Its very bright shiny galvanized finish is a bit overpowering. Is

there
any way to encourage moss etc to grow on it to get it to blend in

more?

Hide it by growing brambles up it.
Free fruit and better security.


+1 brambles are good free fruit black thorn (sloes) but anything with
thorns will do, wild rose for a bit of variation, gorse, hawthorn?
