Andrea, it was designed by the friend who built the fence for me. I wanted a flat top – none of those picket spikes.

susan, did you design the fence yourself or did someone else do it for you? i like how simple it is, and that is isn't visually impermeable.

I am such a sucker for arches that I love that look with the ivy. Having said that I must admit I love the new fence as much or more. It's a wonderful look and I am all for purging the garden of repetitive chores that are not enjoyable. It certainly has a welcoming feel!

Susan, I like the new fence a lot. With its clean lines and open slats, it has a much more inviting feel than the old ivy covered arch and fence. That it's also lower maintenance is icing on the cake!

Hello Susan,
Your new fence looks neat (as in tidy), and you probably don't want to hear this, but I love the Ivy fence. But (to use your words) damn, I'm English.
I'm not so keen on the hoop by the gate, but will immediately make one of those romantic ivy-covered ones, to save on hedge-trimming time.
We are all different, aren't we? And learn from each other. What doesn't appeal in California, might look excellent in the UK.
