Tall garden walls can make your space feel claustrophobic and cramped.
To brighten them up and make your garden feel better, all you need is this affordable ornament.
Adding a wall planter to your outdoor space can help create a vertical garden.
According to the experts at Atlas Sheds, this step can introduce colour and levels to your garden.
"Maximise vertical space with raised beds, wall planters, or tiered garden shelves," they recommended.
The pros explained that this will "add levels to your garden, making it appear more spacious and creating more opportunities for plant growth".
"Structures like pergolas and trellises can draw the eyes upward, adding height to the space," they added.
And opting for vibrant flowers in your fun planter can add even more "character and depth to small gardens".
For an "open and airy" feel, they suggested incorporating light blue and soft green flowers into your wall planters.
And thanks to B&M, you can add even more personality with a Watering Can Wall Planter.
'I was quoted £10,000 for a garden renovation but did it MYSELF for £1,000 using ChatGPT to show my kids what single mums can do'
The bargain retailer has recently slashed the price of this decor item by 50%.
B&M shoppers can now pick the wall planter up for just £3 instead of £6.
According to its manufacturers, this planter "makes a stylish addition to your garden".
They described it as "perfect for adding character to your garden walls".
However, shoppers will want to hurry as the retailer warned that stock is low.

Young girls find bra-buying excruciating enough without ‘help' from trans M&S workers
Taking one's daughter for her first bra fitting is so excruciating that when that time came for my third daughter, I outsourced this rite of passage to her older sister. Show me a girl who is not self-conscious about her body at that age and I will show you a liar. It doesn't matter how open you have been as a parent, it is all, as the kids say, 'awks'. Usually, the bustling no-nonsense ladies of John Lewis or M&S take over and thank god for that. For the terminally shy, online purchases come to the rescue. In such a situation, I have asked for help while my eldest curled up in embarrassment beside me. The idea that anyone would approach us at all is extraordinary, but a big unit in the shape of a 6ft 2in transgender woman, aka a biological man? Just no. Yet is exactly what happened recently to a mother and daughter in M&S. The mother, who complained, said her daughter 'freaked out'. M&S have apologised. But really what are they playing at? Of course, trans people can be employed in the store. But sticking them in the lingerie section? What could possibly go wrong? This is a company, after all, that apologised for and withdrew an ad that said: ' First bras for fearless young things.' Note the dehumanising use of the word 'things' – it is as if the words girls must be erased to satisfy the need of some poor boys who identify as the opposite sex. M&S have yet more form on this. For years it has proclaimed itself as an 'inclusive retailer' allowing men who identify as women into its changing rooms. They claim their changing rooms are secure and private. But why should women even have to think about this? Why this insane tussle over our rights to privacy and safety given this is what most of the public want and more to the point, what most of its female customers want? The drive from corporates, brand consultants and strung-out ad execs high on their own supply of loopy-loo ideas of diversity is producing a culture that is strangely dated and irrelevant. What on earth, for instance, was that super-queer Jaguar ad, which featured a range of interesting-looking androgynous models – but no actual car – about? Do potential Jag owners want to 'create exuberant', 'delete ordinary' and 'live vivid'? Do they even understand what this nonsense means? We are not in Kansas any more. The gender cult has peaked. This has come about through a number of cases, tribunals and reviews culminating in the Supreme Court Equality Act ruling, which clarified the law by explaining that gender identity does not trump biology. Just as importantly though, as more light has been shone on this subject (often by women objecting to having our boundaries violated), public attitudes have shifted hugely in the last five years. The most recent YouGov survey shows that the public across all age groups does not want men in women's spaces, understands that there is a clash with women's rights at times and does not support the use of puberty blockers. I also suspect that many people, when questioned about the rights of transwomen to be in female spaces, clearly did not understand that most were in fact, fully intact men who have not transitioned beyond some poorly applied slap. We are currently living through a moment in which several of our politicians and much of our culture is not up to speed on this – another worrying sign of just out of touch they are. Gender-critical views are not some aberration beloved only by middle-aged hags: they have, in fact, become the majority view. The more informed people have become on this subject, the more they have rejected cult thinking. The outlier position is now to welcome biological men into women's refuges (would-be Green leader Zack Polanski) or into women's prisons (Nigel Farage, who ended up doing a U-turn on that view 24 hours later). The case for medicalisation and sterilisation of children we can leave to the likes of deranged fanatics like Jolyon Maugham and Dr Helen Webberley. Sadly, the cultural establishment also joins those holding out against reality, with writers, academics, novelists, artists and TV types being the most blinkered of all. It turns out that they are mostly gutless authoritarians. The Edinburgh International Book Festival will not platform any of our excellent gender critical writers, such as Jenny Lindsay (author of Hounded, about the witch-hunt of women by trans activists) or the contributors to the best-selling set of essays The Women Who Wouldn't Wheesht: Voices from the Front-Line of Scotland's Battle for Women's Rights. The festival is operating with basically a No Debate policy. Its star turn is, of course, Nicola Sturgeon – who was brought down partly by her gender lunacy. The festival organisers prefer to stay in their comfort zone untroubled, it would appear, by law or public opinion. These folk are far too genteel to espouse book burning but they don't need to. Their cultural negligence and denial suffices. In their bubble of faux radicalism, their views (any bloke can be a woman!) have no consequences in the real world. Oh but they do. They have consequences in small ways – men offering teenage girls 'help' with bras – and in big ways, when women lose careers and credibility for stating the truth. Just last month, at London's Pride rally, we again saw demonstrations on our streets, where signs saying 'Kill Terfs' and threats of violence to women were paraded. Make no mistake, these people are sore losers in every way. This is why we remain keen to protect our spaces and our daughters.

The five steps you need to take TODAY to prevent enormous 22-inch rats invading your home & garden
Plus, the device that can help keep rodents at bay RAT ATTACK The five steps you need to take TODAY to prevent enormous 22-inch rats invading your home & garden Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THIS week Brits were left shocked after a gigantic 22-inch rat was discovered in a UK home. The supersize rodent repulsed locals in Redcar and Cleveland, North Yorkshire, after a picture was shared on social media by local politicians. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 A 22-inch supersized rat was discovered in a property in the Normanby area by a pest controller who had been called to investigate And it seems many Brits are also worried about their own houses and gardens being infested, as 'giant rats uk' has been one of the top trending searches. Thankfully there are some ways to deter rats away from their homes. Garden shed expert, Sam Jenkinson, for garden building retailer Tiger, has shared five tips for keeping rats and mice at bay in a non-hurtful way… Plant peppermint 3 Peppermint plants can help to deter rats Credit: Getty Rats hate the smell of peppermint, so in the area that surrounds your garden building, we'd suggest planting peppermint to deter them from trying to sneak their way in. More on pests BUG OFF List of 3 plants that will banish flies, spiders & mice from your home Not only will this deter pests from infiltrating your garden building, but in the summer, it will also flower with delicate purple flowers – brightening up your garden space. You can also create your own peppermint spray using 10 drops of peppermint oil, one cup of white vinegar (or three to five drops of liquid dish soap) and one to two cups of water. Spray the mixture in entryways and around areas you've noticed rat activity and they'll soon disappear. Remove food sources Garden buildings, especially in the summer, are often used as a place for entertaining and hosting guests. If you don't remove food sources from your garden building, rats and other pests may be attracted. Ensure you clean any outdoor buildings out thoroughly after use to remove all traces of food. Monster '22-INCH' rat 'as big as a cat' is found in UK home - as locals warned more could be on the loose Seal up any holes Rats can squeeze through very small holes, so if your garden buildings have holes, they'll find their way through. This is why tongue and groove boards, like shiplap, are a good investment – sheds with overlap or OSB (like large chipboard) seem to have more gaps with weathering or age, so tongue and groove boards are better at stopping intruders, large or small. It's important to seal up any holes in your garden buildings and other garden items such as fences and foundations. You can use wire mesh caulk to do so. Use ultrasonic devices 3 If you don't remove food sources from your garden building, rats and other pests may be attracted Credit: Getty If your garden building has a power source, you can plug in an ultrasonic device. These devices emit high-frequency sound waves that are inaudible to humans but can be irritating to rats and vermin, keeping them away. However, this system may only be effective as a short-term solution, so consider other additional options to ensure pests stay away for good. Keep your garden buildings clean Rats are attracted to cluttered and dirty places, so it's advisable to regularly clean and tidy your garden building, removing debris such as leaves and sticks from the outside and any materials which could be used for nesting.
