If you're looking to level up your garden's privacy without adding an eyesore privacy fence, there are other options available.
Gardening experts suggest getting creative with your green fingers and adding natural barriers to your space.
And if the idea of tending to hedges of climbing plants is a little overwhelming, this budget buy may be a more suitable option.
In fact, it's also ideal for outdoor spaces that don't have any grass at all.
The Large Egg Cup Planter Glazed Plant Pot is available from The Range for just £9.51.
Measuring 33 centimetres in diameter and 31 centimetres in height, this oversized planter is described as "strong and durable".
It has six drainage holes on the base and is said to give your garden an "elegant" look.
The glazed planter is available in green, blue, red, or grey.
According to the experts at Good Build Superstore, this addition can help to make your garden feel more private.
"Introducing oversized potted plants is another creative way to boost your garden privacy while adding a touch of greenery and style," they said.

"Screening your garden with tall and dense foliage plants in large pots can make instant privacy screens on patios, decks or even directly on the ground."
And they pointed out that this step is ideal for those renting their space.
"By placing oversized potted plants along the perimeter of your outdoor space or in areas where you would like privacy, you can infuse a sense of seclusion without the need for permanent structures or extensive landscaping," they added.
The experts also highlighted a major advantage to this form of DIY privacy in your garden.
"Plus, the versatility of potted plants allows you to rearrange them as necessary, making it easy to adapt your privacy solutions to changing seasons or preferences," they explained.
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.
Or you can add a stylish touch to your privacy fence with a B&M buy.
