Good Fences #101 - Intertwined

Hello & Welcome!

It's time for GOOD FENCES  hosted by Theresa from,
The Run-a-round Ranch Report.

Last week I featured a Wrought Iron fence with little curlicues on it.  You can find that fence HERE  if you missed seeing it.  The reason I mention this fence is that someone mentioned in the comments that perhaps they would let vines grow on it.  I replied back saying I didn't think so but that the house next door did indeed have some vines growing through their fence and that I would feature it today.

So here is the house next door:  Click to Enlarge Photos.



I don't know what type of vines these are and they were only on sections of the fence, not the entire fence. - This fence isn't quite as fancy as the one with the curlicues but it's still really nice.


I liked the way the vines were draped over the fencing in this shot.

More vines and a closer look at them....


As I started to turn the corner I thought this view of the fence and the way it curved around their yard was really nice.  There were no more vines on the fence at this point though.


Finally I thought it might be neat to actually show you the house this fence surrounds.

 
 
 
The homes in this neighborhood are quite nice and fairly new.  I like the brickwork on the chimney of this one.
 
 
I hope you have enjoyed today's fence selection.  Don't forget to check out the other participants fences.  You won't be disappointed. 
 
Have a great day.

  1. i love the curved part of the fence and the house is so beautiful. i like that stone to. and i was surprised to see the fence looks about 3 or 4 foot high with the house in it and i would have guessed it at 5 plus feet from just the fence pic.

  5. I love when vines crawl over fences. As long as they don't obscure the fence.

  6. Hi, Ida! I love wrought iron fences, and this one is very pretty. I like how it curves around too. That's kind of unusual--usually you see them cornered off.

  7. I'm all in favour of vines Ida. All the better if those trailiing branched have bunches of grapes that can be made into red wine.

    I've included a likk which tells you all abour the ringing/banding of wild birds.

  9. That is very nice.

    Clematis make for nice fence vines, I've seen them growing on iron fences in Columbus, OH.

  14. Love the look of that house and their fence. I really like the way it curves rather than having straight angles at the corner

  15. I think vines and fences just go together so naturally! Great photos!

  18. This is a beautiful looking fence, Ida. I'm sure it cost quite a bit to install but it looks like it can last for many decades.

  23. You have some very nice fences in your community, I love the house too! I love the way it curves around also, very striking. Enjoy your evening, Kelly.

    Thanks for making the guess on my post, it was a lot of fun.

  28. Hello Ida!:)When I first saw the fence I had imagined it to be much taller, but small is beautiful too. It's a neat fence, and your photos of both fence and house ( which is lovely)are great. If the vine looking plant flowers, it will look gorgeous on a fence like that.
    Have a great Weekend!:)

  30. Fancy fancy! I love that fence style and what a pretty house to go with it!

  31. I wonder how cucumbers would do on that fence?

    Very cool fence.

  32. That house has some very nice curb appeal! I really like the fence design as it doesn't distract from the architecture of the home. But what I really love here is the shot of the vine twisting on the fence. It's such a great example of something modern, hard, permanent versus the softer way of Nature. It's an essay on Man vs. Nature in a single shot!! Brilliant.

  33. That is a very nice fence. Love its simple but elegant pattern.

  34. Oooh, it's a clematis and it will flower later. Love the curve. Beautiful!

  35. I like that they made a curve instead of a corner on the fence :) Looks good!

  36. Really nice! I like the close-ups of the vine.
