Hello everyone,
I am currently thinking about the shading for my 5x5m (16x16 ft) wooden deck, which will be used as an outdoor dining area. Normally, I would have installed a louvered roof without hesitation. Until I saw this:
Is such natural shading practical? The distance between the crab apple trees is exactly 5m (16 ft), which matches our dimensions perfectly. Which plants are suitable for this? Preferably not ones that attract a lot of insects...

Since it was only a single-layer wall, I don’t want any gaps or overly uneven fractured edges like the Grand Canyon, which I would then have to keep looking at...

We’re going to plant one now. When I was a child, I always had to pick leaves because silkworms like them very much.
