I based the design around this shared boundary, using a low dry stone wall filled with planting pockets and a fence with vertical herb planters and a wildlife highway. Using companion planting with pollinator friendly plants helps to create a space where families can connect with nature through the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of the world around us.
