We have this old fence around our backyard that looks much better when it is hidden from sight by the trees. Our neighbor's ivy is providing a nice cover but what it really wants is to get to our yard :-).
Nicely done but don't let it get any closer! Ivy... bloody stuff. I spend my life ripping it out of the garden and off the trees, fences and garage walls. It takes over and smothers everything. The trouble is that my wife likes it and keeps planting the stuff!
