Virginia Creeper

Anything you want to soften or hide can be addressed with a dose of Virginia Creeper. Let's hide the outhouse (it's actually the watering shed):

Before

After

We relocated three Virginia Creepers that were growing out of place in the Produce Garden and planted them on the south facing wall of the watering shed. They will attach themselves to the wood, grow up the structure and disguise it. We have also planted Virginia Creeper around most of the posts of the south fence to distract the viewer from the fact that the fence is leaning.

The future maintenance task will be to cut off any creepers that start to travel across the ground as the vines will easily smother lawns and trees if you are not rigorous in containing them. 

Gardeners must eventually learn to say "No!" when things step out of line; otherwise there is no garden.
