Landscaping Ideas-Another Great Way to Cover up Those Ugly Metal Fence Posts
I previously shared another idea with everyone, or that is, folks who have ‘ugly metal fence posts’ holding up each section of their wood fence for support. In our yard we used a combination of wood panels to cover some of the poles, and vines to cover the rest. Following are the instructions for using vines. Again, I’ve tried to keep it simple, because it was in fact very simple to do. This is another great do-it-yourself landscape decorating project that can also hide what may be an unattractive fence or add color to a freshly painted or stained fence with your favorite vines.  Â
Cut plastic fencing in to 1-2 inch wide strips. Begin by securing plastic fencing to fence with a staple gun. Next, plant vines in the ground in front of the poles or just off to the side if the cement footings that the poles sit in stick to far out. For this project we used 3 Potato vines for the fact that they are evergreen (no losing all their leaves for this project) and will cover the poles year round. No…you won’t find potatoes growing from them. Just beautiful foliage, and amazing blossoms for most of the year.  Attach the vines loosely to the plastic fencing to allow for growth, and secure with gardeners plastic coated wire ties. As your vines begin to branch out continue to guide them along your pre cut plastic fencing adding additional strips as needed for your vines to cling to. Eventually you will be unable to see the plastic fencing.
Supplies:
- Plastic Fencing - 3 x 50 ft.
- Scissors or wire cutters
- Staple gun
- staples
- Plastic coated wire ties made for out door plants
- 3 Potato Vines
- Planting soil & mulch
