I had a dull fence panel next to my shed which my daughter's bedroom looked out to, and I have thought about it for a while and settled for some greenery. Rustic fence panels would have also worked, but we wanted some colour and we opted for Mandevilla's that will grow in time to create a luscious wall of green and pink. A quick repaint of the fence and this project was complete in less than an hour.
All purchased via a quick stop to Bunnings - Mandevilla x2, potting mix and scoria, rectangle pot, garden mesh.
Hello @Jimi
Thank you very much for sharing the details of your fence revamp. Adding a bit of green is always a good idea and is definitely a much better view than a dull lifeless fence. Given enough time the Mandevillas will be all over that garden mesh.
My number one tip is to make sure to train the Mandevilla branches using Garden Wire so that the entire mesh is covered and not just concentrated into one area.
Again, thank you for sharing your wonderful project.

Hi @Jimi,
What a great weekend project that will have growing appeal! I am sure your daughter appreciates the refreshed colour and mandevillas from her window. I would love to see an updated photo once the flowers have climbed their way up the fence.
