I don't want anything that will have roots that will affect my concrete or trunks that get excessively fat! Ive since painted the fence Basalt grey. I will be keeping them fairly narrow 300mm and trim them to fence height. Options I was looking at 1. Feijoa trees alternating with olive 2. Ficus Hilli (pleached) and underplanted with things like azaleas Daphnes and Gardenias The garden bed is only 400ish wide Any suggestion? Or opinions on my thoughts?
