How to create a striking, sturdy living fence: combining shrubs with shades and background

A living fence is not just a green barrier, but an opportunity to add style, depth, and accent to the landscape. But how do you combine shrubs with the surrounding space so that they look harmonious and not like a random collection of plants?

In our article, you will learn:

  • Why shrubs with different shades of foliage are preferable — purple, gold, with white stripes.
  • How to combine “bright” varieties with green mass to make them easier on the eye.
  • The finer points of placement: where to plant yellow, purple, or white-leaved shrubs in relation to paths, houses, and flower beds.
  • Helpful tips: how to alternate colors without overloading the space; exceptions when designing accents in the garden.
