tsewyek Gainesville, FL
April 23, 2008 7:38 AM | I have a shaded yard in front about a hundred feet across with a driveway each side and would like to build a nice entrance near the street in front. I like pergolas,with/without lattice. English Ivy grows well here as does passion flower vine. Maybe some large grasses, big pots or planters, and/or a few feet of hedge on each side of the entrance. I would like some large bushy things in a line with smaller stuff in front. I would want it to go the fern height to 6 or 8 feet front to rear.
I am in Gainesville Florida but it does frost here a few nights each winter. My soil is just poor sand but topsoil can be had.
Get the picture? Well I don't and that is what I need help with, the picture. I am a carpenter and can build things but my design skills are poor. Ideas appreciated. Thank you.
