Last year November, we together with our neighbour decided to change the old chain link fencing that divided our side garden to a new one. A friend recommended a contractor to us and he came to measure and a quotation was given.
We agreed to the quotation and a date was given so that I can clear my plants and pots away from the existing fencing to give room for the workers to do their work.
This is the newly fixed intermediate fencing.
According to the contractor this fencing will not rust.
This snapshot was taken from our garden.
This was our old intermediate chain link fencing.
Our garden is about 2 feet higher than our neighbour's garden.

The back wall of our neighbour and ours.
View was from our neighbour's garden.
The first owner built the concrete wall. The current owner fixed the grilles to increase the height for added security.
Needed additional reinforcement because behind this fencing is the back lane.
It took us about a week to tidy up the garden and rearrange back the pots.
I did a lot of pulling out, clearing of old plants, replanting and pruning.
Hubby started the hanging pots project.
He planted Japanese roses in the hanging pots.
A mixture of big and small pots of flowering plants and edibles.
Most of them are newly planted seedlings and my garden looked bare.
I still have some available pots to grow veggies.

This is my mini garden at the side of my house.

My work was to plant the seed in your hearts,
and Apollos' work was to water it,
but it was God, not we,
who made the garden grow in your hearts.

Lovely views!

ReplyDeleteHi Claire, I hope it will remain neat and tidy too! Lol!
DeleteHello Nancy!:) It was a lot of work for you, but worth it in the end.Your garden looks so nice with your new fence,and pots all lined up neatly.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Breathtaking. I hope my plants will grow well, or else the eyes can only see pots!
DeleteYes, I thought of changing to this type too. The contractor also told the same thing, not rusty. Got only 2 colours, silver & black. Mine old fencing also like yours. How did they charge, by sq feet?
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry. Hubby also couldn't remember the price of fencing per sq feet. The contractor charged us as per lump sum including the grilles for our window, etc. This new fencing is quite common over here and those that I have seen are the silver colour.
DeleteMy you and your husband have been very busy. I think you did a lot of work in a short time and the new fence and the rearranged garden look nice and tidy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Joyful. It was tough work tidying and rearranging the pots. Now I feel happier over my garden.
DeleteHello Nancy, the new fence is wonderful. I like all your plants, very pretty.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday, enjoy your day!
Thank you, Eileen. Have a happy Thursday too!

DeleteHi Nancy,
ReplyDeleteIt definitely required a lot of work to tidy up and to move pots of flowers/plants around the garden. Lovely mini garden. Like the hanging pots on new fence too. I could only admire.

ReplyDeleteHave a good afternoon. I'll be posting Friday's Hunt for tomorrow.
Come over and see me.
Thank you, Grantham. I will be over to visit your new posting.
DeleteYour new fence looks very nice. This type of fence gives added security too as I was told it is very difficult to climb over this fence because there is no foothold and the opening is not big enough for hands to grip.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. You are right but the fence not having enough space for hands or feet hold.
DeleteIt looks really nice, great job:)
ReplyDeleteOf course let's follow each other, I follow you now, hope you follow me back:)

DeleteThe new fence looks good. You sure do have a lot of pots.
