Half sloped backyard with fence - design ideas.
Comments (20)It depends on your needs. Do you need a utility area in which to hide things? Or a place for kids things? Or would it be better to plant a large flowering shrub that grows higher than the fence and creates additional interest? If you have a bed in front of the c.l. fence, it's possible to lessen the length of the fence run so that it doesn't penetrate into the yard so much. You could shorten it by as much as 1/3 or 1/2, depending on the width of the bed that acts to protect people from getting too close to the drop off....See MoreNeed ideas for transitioning fence and retaining wall

Comments (6)I’m really curious about what caused the bamboo to die, it’s usually so tough. What zone are you in? Acidic or alkaline soil? Since you like a contemporary look (your uplights are so pretty!), then yes, the junipers would work. Sky Pencil Holly is another very narrow, columnar shrub ... but if you’re in a zone over 7, the all day sun might be a problem. If you’d like to break up the monotony of so many junipers, you could do a mix with things already suggested here. For example: a juniper in front of each fence post, then cannas, bananas, or vines, etc, in between them. The uplights could be put in front of the junipers. You’d still have the evergreens for winter interest....See MoreAndrey Tirel
