Need ideas for screening plants for a garden bed

julia_g

Hello,

I would like some help with species selection for my garden bed 600x1600. It is a sunny courtyard in Sydney and I would like some screening of the fence (preferably fast growing) as well as potentially something small and visually interesting in the front. Any suggestions welcome!

Thanks

Hello @julia_g 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about what screening plants to use for a garden bed.

For fast growing hedges, I suggest having a look at the list below.

• Viburnum
   
• Pittosporum
   
• Camellia
   
• Lily Pilly
   
• Photinia
   
• Magnolia (Little Gem)

Here is a link to our best advice: What plants are good for screening?

I also suggest having a look at this discussion - What fast growing screening hedge is also livestock friendly? by @cakes287.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
