Landscaping ideas, another way to conceal these metal fence posts Ugly I have another idea shared with everyone, or is, people who have "ugly metal fence posts, lifting each section of wooden fence for support. In our backyard, we used a combination of wood panels to cover a portion of the poles and vines to cover the rest. Here are instructions for the use of the vine. Again, I tried to keep things simple, because it was actually very simple to do. This is another great do-it-yourself landscape design project that can also hide what may be an unattractive fence or adding color to a freshly painted fence stained or your favorite vines.
Cut plastic fences to 1-2 inches wide. First attach plastic fence to fence with a stapler. Then, planting vines in the ground in front of the posts or just off, if the soles of cement poles sitting stick to far. For this project, we used three potato vines for the fact that they are evergreen (not loose all their leaves for this project) and cover the years poles. No ... you will not find potato growing them. Just beautiful foliage and amazing flowers for most of the year. Attach the loose vines at the end of plastic to allow growth and secure with plastic wire ties gardeners coatings. As your vines begin to branch to continue to guide them along your fence to cut the plastic before adding additional bands that need to cling to your vine. Finally, you will not see the plastic fencing.
