Silver birch trees were planted close together for this sideway makeover project because they don't grow too tall and bring a beautiful green contrast to the painted fence.
The project
The side of our house looked boring and needed some greenery. After months of working from home and looking out the window, it was time to change it up. By planting silver birch trees close together, the trees don't grow as tall as expected. We did the same technique at my parents' house and they now have a beautiful green sideway.

Nikkaz also shared this garden makeover with lilly pillies planted along the fence line and new turf.
Workshop member shayden06 transformed the side of this house into an attractive and functional area by building a narrow deck with space for a table to enjoy the greenery.
