So you ask yourself, “Where do I start?” Your new garden concept should always be in harmony with the design of your house. Even if you are not changing any of the existing home structures, you can still blend new and modern ideas for your garden that will make the entire home look new but at the same time preserve that rustic feel of country style.

You can attach nylon or wire mesh to the rails for more protection and to allow your favorite flowering vines like Morning Glory and Honeysuckle to spread out readily.

Another authentic garden fencing idea if you have a spacious garden is the dry stone walls garden fencing. This type of fencing can withstand the harshest climate conditions and provides great security. The best type of stones will be those that are naturally found in your locality.
