Now, see Marge is thinking like me... A raised bed of
18".
trellis:
A trellis is a great idea. After I have just dug out
15 plus holes in this nasty hardpan, I'm not to
excited to dig some more. I could bolt Additional 4x4
on the sides of the buried 4x4 to give it additional
height. But of course, I would have to get it approval
from the Neighborhood Control Board. It should fly. I
would have to think of the wind factor and what loads
would occur on this new design. Its very wind on this
hill. I had my barbecue blown over one day. Can you
say "windy". So, back to my thoughts..... I would
have to consider supports. Maybe good old sturdy
structure would have to do for supporting issue.
Once the 4x4's were in and bolted, I would build the
trellis that would follow the top of the fence.
The plant I would use, would be an evergreen Clematis.
