Default Replacement Plants for Fence


"Endulini" wrote in message
om...
Hi,

I'm looking to replace some Leylandii that are next to a south facing
fence at the bottom of my garden. Aside from the practicalities of
removing them what would people suggest as replacements? Ideally I'm
looking for something that will grow to a reasonable height (e.g. 6-8
foot) without to much excessive outwards growth although I would want to
camoflage the fence as well. Initial thoughts were some bamboo although
I'm aware some these can be quite rampant. Has anyone some other good
suggestions?

If it's any help I'm in the East Midlands.

Cheers


Which side of the south facing fence?

If the south side: yum yum! Figs; grapes; apricots; nectarines;
greengages...

And you are asking from 'fruit.com'!
