It’s known and loved for its shiny green leaves, accompanied by Christmassy red berries and dainty white blooms throughout the seasons.This tropical beauty is a screen with a difference. It grows to 6ft tall and produces blooms of vibrant shades. Unfortunately, this is an annual plant, so it will only provide temporary screening. But it does promise a summer-long flower display! 8. Dracaena Growing tips: If growing pittosporum for tall hedging, ensure you select one of the larger forms. Plant in well-drained soil. In sun, the flowers will be better; in shade the foliage will be more impressive, so semi-shade is best. If you don’t live in a mild area, winter protection is necessary, as is planting in sheltered full sun. Karl Foerster is a tall, upright feather reed grass. It puts on a year-long display with feather-like plumes and faded stems that are particularly eye-catching on frosty days. To avoid waiting for concrete to set up, you can fill around the posts with dry concrete mix rather than pouring wet concrete. That way, you can continue with the rest of the carpentry work and maybe even finish the project in one day. Keep the top of the dry concrete a 3 inches below the top of the hole. (You’ll need about two 60-lb. bags per hole.) When you’re done working for the day, simply flood the top with the garden hose and the concrete will set up overnight. This ornamental grass will bring sophistication to any garden. You can get lots of the same species or mix and match Big Bluestem with others for a more varied display.

It’ll give your garden a desert feel while keeping you shielded from watchful eyes. But don’t expect it to flower – these plants only flower once every 10-25 years. 3.
