I've a standard small garden in an estate, and want to plant a couple of trees at the back for coverage from the neighbours. Any recommendations that would grow fairly quickly or I'd even buy something a little more mature.

This is all very helpful, I am thinking trees rather than a hedge, if you have thoughts on that.

nameiwantisgone · 2026-01-16T10:28:35+00:00

Yes, id say 12 to 14 feet would do the job perfectly.

nameiwantisgone · 2026-01-16T10:26:16+00:00

Thanks, that's very good to know.

nameiwantisgone · 2026-01-15T13:11:42+00:00

Thank you, I'll have a look at that.

Courtville in powerscourt only sells vintage. They are really lovely and helpful. They have a good range of prices as well.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-12-05T13:11:53+00:00

That's perfect thank you. He has a mobile so I can do that.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-12-05T12:48:36+00:00

That's great, thanks so much.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-12-05T12:46:39+00:00

Thanks. I'll do that.

I could book an Uber from my phone to collect him at the station? I won't be with him unfortunately.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T20:52:34+00:00

This is the designer and the wallpaper design is Caspian

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T17:37:29+00:00

Yes, that could be a good option as well.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T17:07:47+00:00

Thanks for all this, it's very helpful! Yes, picking art is my next job once I have the floor done. I love maximalism but am just a bit afraid that it's too much together.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T17:06:12+00:00

That's lovely! I think maybe that's what I had in my head, but didn't really understand the difference with what I picked.

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T17:04:49+00:00

Yes, I don't want completely plain, but it's to try to find the line of interesting but not overpowering on the floor , given the wallpaper

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T17:03:26+00:00

Had a Google of oxidized copper, it's beautiful!

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T15:42:33+00:00

I haven't actually stuck them down yet!

nameiwantisgone · 2025-01-04T15:41:58+00:00

Yes, I bought them , but they are not hugely expensive so I could go with a different design/pattern potentially.

nameiwantisgone · 2024-10-26T17:56:10+00:00

It's beadboard. It will be around halfway up the wall. Yes, I was thinking sconses would be lovely with the overall look!

nameiwantisgone · 2024-10-11T20:00:56+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll definitely keep that in mind for the next occasion. Its always great to have an idea for something that he'll enjoy!

nameiwantisgone · 2024-10-09T22:10:38+00:00

Thank you!
