I made a beautiful, green privacy fence in my garden – it was so easy and it's all thanks to a specific type of plant | The Sun

A WOMAN has shared how she created the perfect summer privacy fence in her garden – and then made it even better thanks to some beautiful green plants. 

TikTok account @locationhouseofbeau uploaded a video where she shared her genius invention and how it perfectly suited the outside space of her property.

@locationhouseofbeau captured her garden on film, as she unveiled a beige fence at the back of the grass.

And adding even more privacy to it, the green-fingered pro decided to add what she described as “privacy trees” to not only keep prying eyes out, but also make it more aesthetically pleasing. 

The TikToker then explained to her 39.8k followers how easy it was to do, and said they could easily follow in her footsteps.

As the camera continued to pan on the five trees that sat at the top of the wooden panelling, she said: “Privacy trees for screening above a fence.”

She then said she’s often asked what trees they are and how to plant them, before revealing the answer.

@locationhouseofbeau explained: “What are those tall trees?

“They’re Japanese Privet trees,” she continued, speaking about the tree, also known as Ligustrum lucidum.

The nice-on-the-eye tree is described by the RHS as “a handsome, upright evergreen shrub or small tree, to 3m in height if grown as a shrub.”

They add: “The leaves are dark green, waxy and can be up to 10cm long. 

“It bears conical sprays of small, scented, off-white flowers from mid-summer to early autumn, which are followed by lax clusters of small, round, black berries.”

Further speaking about the benefits of investing in Japanese Privet, which cost her around £130 a tree, @locationhouseofbeau said: “They’re evergreen.

“They were tiny when I planted them 2 years ago, but now they provide perfect privacy screening.”

She also added that she simply planted them and never had to prune them – so left them until they were bushy.

And it didn’t take long for her social media followers to congratulate her on the idea, saying it was a thing of both beauty and genius.

One person wrote: “They look really good. It must make a difference to have privacy.” 

A second said: “Those look great!”
