Tips for creating a living fence

FOX 9 Garden Guy Dale K has tips for how to create a living fence in Minnesota.

FOX 9 Garden Guy Dale K is offering some tips for planting natural, living fences in your yard. 

The great thing about living fences is they're more sustainable: instead of cutting down a tree to build a fence, you can plant a tree instead to make a natural fence. Natural fences also offer some noise buffering, natural beauty and interest. 

Some plants you can use to create a living fence include climbing vines (honeysuckle, wisteria, Virginia creepers); dense shrubs (hydrangeas, gray dogwood), and evergreens (Swiss pine, arborvitaes, Wichita blue juniper).
