M.My son actually just committed a crepe murder, but recycling its corpse into Felder’s funky fence yielded happy results.
His gigantic tree was too big to wrap my arm around and was so infested with bark scales that I had no choice but to use a powerful penetrating pesticide, which is banned in many countries, or a chainsaw. . I chose the latter which is a better solution in the long run.
But then the trimmings were used to create traditional ancient “wattle” fences by standing the trimmed trunks and intertwining them with smaller branches and branches.
It’s not your typical neighborhood accessory, but it still creates a physical and visual barrier and solidifies the notion that my place is separate from the rest of the world. We “enter” the garden for a reason. One of the roots of garden is gher, which means to surround. Derived from the etymology of defense, fences, fences were created out of necessity and primarily to keep things out so that what’s inside can thrive.
The Swiss philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau said, “The first man who fenced off a piece of land, said, ‘This is mine,’ and realized that people were naive enough to believe him, was civil society.” is the true founder of
Fencing has some very practical uses. Temporary hurdles to keep dogs out of flowerbeds come to mind, and most towns need dogs to discourage children from swimming late at night in pools. Some live behind tall walls that enclose entire neighborhoods.
Because they are not just physical barriers, fences and walls, they are also social signals that control behavior just by being there (although fences are said to keep out only honest people). Homeowners’ associations typically dictate veneers that comply with rules regarding height, material, setback, and even outward-facing surfaces.
When made of decorative material or subdued by plants, it’s also a subtle way to keep your distance while appearing pleasant to outsiders. But keep your fence.”
Long before small pieces of barbed wire on land were encircled, the riff raff was not to be walled, but to contain or keep out free-roaming livestock. Native Americans often used tall fences to enclose villages and crops. Ornate wrought iron became the norm in the Victorian era, but in the last century much was scrapped and melted into war materials.
A cheap post-WWII industrial solution, chain links (who love cheap, decorative slats) are now almost universally shunned in suburbia. Metal and even realistic plastic materials. When will tech geeks come up with a twinkling electronic fence that can be set up like Christmas lights and programmed to display whatever you want people to see?
Beyond the cliché (mostly spat on by those who aren’t) of living a peaceful life behind a white picket fence, the fence transcends selfishness and fear. It can also calm those who put them up. Wrapping around my great-grandmother’s woven chain link fence reminds me that I still need a break from a complicated and messy world.
The crape myrtle my son killed is a physical and subtly visual reminder that my garden is a private space. I divided the difference with a rustic homegrown wattle.
