    Bamboos & grasses to help hide my shed, any recommendations?

    Evening all,

    I am trying to hide my shed and as part of my plan I was thinking of planting some tall bamboos/grasses in containers (so I can easily control them/they wont get out of hand) and I was wondering if anyone could recommend any particular plant groups/species?

    Also should I raise the plant pots with some bricks so the plant roots wont grow into the ground soil and spread/become uncontrollable?

    Thank you for your replies,

    Samuel

        Yes, in addition to climbers.

        Nothing is wrong with my shed (its not even built yet) - the problem is people trying to break in so im going to try to camouflage it a bit!

          Might be better just using camouflage netting :-

            Samuel, I think you are wasting your time trying to disguise your shed. If you want to make it look nice then fair enough, but thieves will know it's there anyway.

            Just don't leave valuable tools in there.

              What RL says ^^ plus as an old man once told me "a lock only keeps out an honest man",the mentality of lots of scumbags is .. it's locked so there must be something worth pinching
              He who smiles in the face of adversity,has already decided who to blame
