Laura explained that she had to come up with a plan because the fence didn’t have a flowerbed – which she would ordinarily utilise – underneath it.

“This particular fence can be seen from two of our lounge windows,” she said in a post on her The Home We Made Instagram page.

“And I wanted to get something that would cover it all year round and have beautiful flowers in the summer.”

So, they bought three planters to put on the brickwork under the fence, and added a 3m Trachyspermum to each.

“They are part of the jasmine family so in summer, they are completely covered in lots of small white flowers and they smell incredible,” she added.

“We have actually used Trachyspermum a lot in our garden and we have it covering the fence at the bottom of the garden.”

Laura continued the Reel by showing how the fence looked in April last year when the plants were added to the planters, and how it looks today – with the pretty trailing flowers covering the boring wood.

And people were quick to compliment Laura for the idea, with one writing: “Looks so good!”

“And at year 2-3 it really takes off, mine is so fragrant right now,” another commented.

“Beautiful, what a difference,” a third added.

“Looks fabulous!” someone else praised.

“This really looks so good,” another agreed.

“Nice idea,” someone else said.
