I thought a garden chat and photo thread would be a good idea.
This way, we have a space to share current pictures and discuss dandelions and other plants.

...Great. And do you also want to add latticework to the firewood shelter, or are there practical reasons not to? The corrugated roof basically already acts as the drainage layer.

My preference was for taller trellis panels along the boundary, but the neighbor did not agree to that. So it remains somewhat "busy," since I can’t fully block out the neighboring construction at the boundary.@Pinkiponk
With the neighbor’s permission, you could at least apply the darker stain or finish to the wooden privacy screen on your side, which would help to neutralize it somewhat.

I can join in on the topic of green roofs here. We also installed one ourselves using a roll-out sedum mat similar to turf. I really enjoy having the green roof; up there, real bumblebee parties take place.
It looks really great. The combination of wood, greenery, and black works wonderfully.
