ᐅ What types of boundaries or fences are permitted? Is a bamboo hedge allowed?

Hi everyone!

Since we don’t want a fence and I have always wanted a bamboo hedge, I’m now in a bit of a tricky situation with my property.

The local authority requires us to implement one of the following three ecological measures:
A) Rainwater cistern
B) Solar system
C) Garden planting with native trees and shrubs

The development plan also states that we must plant two native fruit or deciduous trees.

Regarding boundaries, there is an additional rule: “Instead of fences, the planting of hedges up to a maximum height of 2.0 meters (6.6 feet) is allowed (lower reference point: road surface level of the public street traffic area/traffic area with special purpose designation at the street boundary line; upper reference point: top of the hedge), using native, site-appropriate deciduous woody plants.”

For the required measures, I would obviously choose option C), but there are no specified quantities, so for me, planting the two trees would already fulfill the requirement...

Is there any way to plant a bamboo hedge, for example on my property side, not directly at the boundary line?

Thanks in advance!

Hey, let’s start a club.
Besides the compost corner for the hedgehog and various shelters, we also set up a “wild growth corner.” There, we just let things grow naturally. It’s not mowed or trimmed. A very popular spot for all kinds of insects—especially dragonflies.

So, do you already have hedgehogs?

I recently posted a photo of that corner [emoji848] which thread was it again?

So, I like hedgehogs, do you still like them too?

Here in Hesse, the "Mettigel" (minced meat hedgehog) is also very popular...

That's true, I like it too [emoji23]
Although, it doesn't have to be a Mettigel [emoji28]

The noise the birds make every morning is heavenly.
I haven’t seen a hedgehog here yet, although everything needed for them is present.

Actually, I need large trees. I love squirrels. And I will definitely miss them after the move.

Yes. Big and fat. Definitely a female. But I haven’t seen her yet this year. Hopefully, she hasn’t moved away.
