Gardening expert reveals the mistake that leaves gardens dark and boxed in

🌞 Use ornamental grasses, climbing plants, trellis panels, and pergolas to maintain privacy without blocking light. 🌿 In October 2023, the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) advised on balancing privacy and light in gardens using plants and structures. Climbing plants such as clematis, jasmine or climbing roses can also provide effective screening while still allowing sunlight to filter through. Open trellis panels are particularly useful because they provide support for climbing plants while allowing air and daylight to pass through. By combining climbing plants, trellis panels, slatted fencing and carefully chosen structures, it is possible to enjoy both privacy and natural light.
