my allotment has old corrugate sheets half buried - about 18 inches to 2 feet underground, all the way around (to try and stop weeds coming underneath from the neighbour plots) with chicken wire up to 1m (to stop the rabbits getting in)
I then planted a hedge of rosemary and lavender in front of that to hide it from view
Can't seem to get my pictures to upload?.
Are you using the tree icon and is the picture from your computer?
don't think you can upload from a phone - you could email it to yourself then upload it from my pictures
Hello , Jerusalem artichokes can be planted and used as a wind break and you can eat them plus under planting of lavender , can also use chicken wire
unless you want or need a physicall barrier , pallets or some plastic sheets with holes again acts as wind break
depends if you have a problem , on our site Rabbits & Hares are a problem so I have fenced the plot all way round
lets us known how you get on
step over apple and pear?
