plants have many uses in a garden. They could provide cover.
If there is an aesthetic that is not wanted, such as a rusty
shed or cracked wall, vine plants could be used to grow around
and cover up the eyesore with green leaves and beautiful flowers.
Vine plants growing around a chain-link fence would also provide
a nice cover from wind. |
| Another
use of vine plants is for shade. A simple skeleton of a roof
could be installed in a patio or garden, and vine plants could
be used to grow around the structure and make a beautiful natural
cover from sunlight.
Vine plants will also create a third dimension
to a garden that is often overlooked: height. Most gardens
are generally only two dimensional, with consideration only
given to length and depth. The addition of trellises and vine
plants will give the garden a nice look, while adding height.

plants can also be used simply for looks as well. A vine plant
will usually cover anything in its path with leaves, and often
flowers and berries as well. A vine could be used to grow up
the side of a house to give a more natural look to an otherwise
plain, boring façade. Vine plants could also be used
to grow up the post of a mailbox, changing its look from man-made
to natural. |
