Gardeners are racing to Home Bargains for ‘fast-growing' plant that's better than a Flamingo tree for adding privacy
YOU don't have to build a massive fence to add privacy to your garden this summer. A "fast-growing" Home Bargains buy can help to transform your outdoor space. 3 Home Bargains shoppers can pick up a plant that eventually adds privacy to their space (stock image) Credit: Getty 3 Gardening enthusiasts pointed out how 'fast-growing' the Pink Marble Phontinia Fraserai Credit: Facebook Gardening experts recommend utilising plants to elevate your privacy. Fast-growing plants can help to create natural boundaries in your space. Whether you're placing them in your flower beds or pots, these additions can transform your garden. And now, you can take this step without breaking the budget with a savvy deal. Read More On Home Bargains A gardening enthusiast shared the find on the Facebook page "Home Bargains, they have just got them in," she wrote alongside a photo of a Pink Marble Photinia Fraserai. The Home Bargains shopper revealed the potted plants cost £25 each. "Think I'm going to go back tomorrow and buy one," she added. Most read in Fabulous The Facebook user explained that she's "always wanted" one of the "fast-growing" plants. Other gardening fans compared the buy to Flamingo trees in the comments section. Shayna's DIY Privacy Fence: Simple and Effective Many also pointed out how big the plant is expected to grow over the years. "Hope you have a large space for it as they grow enormous unless you constantly trim it," wrote one commenter. "I bought the red robin version last year for £25. It's grown so much. Was definitely great value," said another person. "I bought one from there last year and it's doing amazingly well. It's a good price too. I have mine in a tub," shared a third reader. Another Home Bargains shopper shared her experience with the plant. How to create privacy in your garden CREATING privacy in your garden can be achieved in a number of ways depending on your budget, and the size of your space. Here are some effective ways to enhance privacy in your garden: 1. Fencing Install a tall, solid wooden or vinyl fence. This is one of the most straightforward ways to gain immediate privacy. Or use lattice panels, trellis, or slatted fencing to add a decorative touch while still offering privacy. 2. Hedges and Plants Fast-growing evergreen shrubs or trees like Leylandii, Thuja, or Bamboo along the boundary of your garden can help with privacy. Grow a dense hedge using plants like Boxwood, Privet, or Laurel. It may take time to grow, but it provides a natural and green privacy screen. Use climbers like Ivy, Clematis, or Wisteria on fences or trellises to create a lush, green privacy barrier. 3. Outdoor Curtains Hang outdoor curtains around pergolas, gazebos, or patios for an easy-to-adjust privacy solution. 4. Sound Barriers A water fountain or small waterfall can help drown out noise, adding to the sense of privacy. Or install fencing designed to reduce noise if privacy from sound is also a concern. "I've bought loads of them from Home Bargains, I'm planning to keep them in the topiary shape," she said. "I've got the Red Robin and the Pink Marble, they look gorgeous when the sun catches them." Another customer agreed that the plant is "well worth the money". "Please bear in mind if you don't keep them in a pot they can grow to over 30 foot tall," advised one commenter. "Photinia look stunning as standards. As long as you continue to prune them or they will revert to a bush," agreed another person. 3 The plant is said to grow into a tall bush without regular pruning Credit: Facebook
