Hello everyone,

In the rental house (my mother is the owner), the hedge (a 2-meter (6.5 feet) tall, approximately 20-meter (65 feet) long monstrosity from the 1970s) was removed today. Now I'm wondering how to make this area attractive but cost-effective...

Maybe sow grass in the spring and create a visual screen towards the neighbor (on his side it’s behind the house, so no curious neighbors right at the fence)?

Does anyone have ideas on how to improve this space?

Thanks for your suggestions!

What kind of tree is that one to the right of the bamboo? :-)

Willow-leaved pear (I had to look it up myself, the name is quite difficult [emoji4])
It is an ornamental tree, also called the olive tree of the North because it looks similar but is frost-resistant.

I would recommend planting a new hedge. Possibly cherry laurel, which grows quickly, stays evergreen, and provides excellent privacy without thorns ... easy to trim 🙂.

We have strict regulations here regarding the permitted species. Besides, I can’t just kill all the young shoots now!

Do it yourself or hire someone to do it. That really makes you think ;-)

Nope, that’s his lawn. I have the flower beds. After all, there are two of us, so we share 🙂
