My entire neighbor's house is covered in VA Creeper and is a "living 3 story rowhome". Yes, the birds love it and I enjoy watching them, but my god the noise. Be careful what you wish for.

you know i discovered today i love laurel! I saw a very nice one outside a shop. We have always had loads of shrubs and everygreen bamboos in the garden, the lottie is a slighty different matter, but we are surrounded by mature hedging and trees and we plant more every year! Hurrah for birds (and radishes too) x

My favorite shrub is loropetalum, which will grow into a tree form.<br /><br />The birds like the grape arbor, which has climbing roses on the front.<br /><br />Looking forward to Bloom Day.

And evergreen shrubs provide the best cover for our feathered friends in the winter. I always have a bunch of birds hanging out in the Box hedge. I can&#39;t see them, but I hear them chirping away.

now,<br />here&#39;s the question, Carol,<br />ARE there birds in this picture?<br /><br />we know, we know . . .<br />we&#39;re dumber than a bag a hammers.<br /><br />:-)<br /><br /><br />okay, actually, we agree with you<br />about the shrubs. <br /><br />shrubs may also be strategically <br />placed to aim they eye, construct privacy and direct paths.<br /><br />we LOVE shrubs!<br /><br />..
