Been watches a lot on landscaping, gardening, and food scaping.
If you are not familar with food scaping is using eatible plant mixed in with/as decorative plant. The idea is to create a beautiful landscape that you can eat. I like to think of the gardening version of Willy-Wonka's room where everything is edible (a land of pure imagination!). Along these line of watching a lot of garnding and landscapes box elders are used quite a lot as walls for creating outdoor rooms. Box edlers also get used for a lot of other landscaping sculptures, but let's for this let's focus on the wall concept. Could the box elders be replaces with some thing like blueberry and cherry bushes? Brei the plant lady does some level of blueberries as bushes, but would they, could they be sculpted up to have the same effect as a box elder? How would cherry bushes do? Would both get tall enough to create walls or would they be limited to bush/half walls? Could you creatively use something else as the walls, like raspberries/blackberries woven into a structure? What other bushes plants am I missing that would also work. Would the flowers and fruit add to the atomosphere, cause a unsightly break, or simply be something different altother? How much work is it compared to pruning box-woods?
Lot's of questions, not much in the way of answers, looks like I need to do more research or experimenting.
Would fruit bushes as garden wall work? or is this another useless thought?
