Garden walls

11 years ago

This is a beautiful space. Can you tell me the material they used for the gray and ?silver privacy walls with the painted metal edging and bolts, and the vine-like plant trailing from below the bamboo. Is this a BC area yard?
Thanks so much for sharing this.

Hi. The walls of the garden are actually metal containers. They were onsite before I did the interior courtyard garden design of the space. And yes the space is in Vancouver. You could probably find a metal fabricator in your area to custom make you some and do a powder coating to make sure they don't rust. The trailing plant is a cotoneaster. I hope this helps!
