I used to erect fencing for a living and can assure you willow is the most durable. If you like the look?
Re: Best screening material?
Popped into wilkinsons after work, they didn't have any willow screening, but did have 'black fern' screening. Has anybody tried this or had experience of this?
Re: Best screening material?
maybe I'm old fashioned, but I hate those screening thingys ....
plant a few evergreen creepers against the wall ....

It must be new this year phatplants, I havent seen it. You have to be quick at wilkinsons, the screening comes in very early spring and thats it, no more but they do phone around other stores for you to see how many rolls they have and put it away untill you can pick it upphatplants wrote:Popped into wilkinsons after work, they didn't have any willow screening, but did have 'black fern' screening.

Re: Best screening material?
Thanks deedee just found a website called Primrose, with some excellent deals on 4 metre lengths of screening, with free delivery. Quite like the look of the Acacia screening. Just under £20 a pack plus free next day delivery for the size i require
Re: Best screening material?
Excellent, I love Primrose, I got a 2.5 x 2mtr Awning for £82 off Ebay, Everything they sell is Free delivery .. Ill go look at your Screening
Re: Best screening material?
Yep that's the one, thanks for posting the link i haven't worked out how to do that yet, so think i'd better look in the technical area their goods seem to be excellent value, and their ratings on amazon are excellent.

Right click on a pic, Left Click save image as, A dropdown box appears lefthand corner of screen, Left click the blue box at bottom, "Save" and thats it, into your download folder Hope this wasn't clear as mud lol..
Im really happy with Primrose. I was bidding on an Awning and had a look at there other stuff, there was a water feature going for about £9 with 6 mins left, I bidded £9.20 and won, went back to my awning bid then back to the water feature and looked to see what i had actually won!! Its a 6ft 3 tubed silver water feature with no pump or lights lol. Never mind it was free postage

Put it amonst your plants Dee, somewhere it will catch the light. It will make a very modern feature/

Re: Best screening material?
A Garden Centre near me sells those, they ask about £100 for them with the pump and lights but you can get a pump for a tenner and lights for a fiver so I'd say you've got a great deal there.
I often think that it makes no difference to how they look wheteher the water is running or not, I like them just as a striking piece of modernist art amongst the greenery. I think they look good set against some large rocks at the base too.
