Screening in the allotment - a difficult topic
The term "allotment garden" generally does not refer to a recreational property defined solely by the relatively small garden area, but rather to an occasionally also referred to as "allotment garden" in a small garden colony. As the neighborly relationship in such an installation presents very specific challenges, the construction of an alternative to the classic privacy screen requires some creativity.
Allotment gardens are usually clubs and aligned with each other
Traditionally, most allotment gardens have been created to give people in garden-free living conditions access to their own piece of land in nature and its cultivation for the cultivation of fruit and vegetables. It used to be a basic principle of these allotments that the various members supported each other in many activities and supported each other with advice and support across the garden fence. Now, however, at least part of a generation change and for many younger allotment gardeners is less the longing for petty-bourgeois farming of their own "flounder", but the retreat for relaxing with friends and family in the green in the foreground. The mutual consideration requires in the cramped conditions of a small garden plant according to most of the articles of association still as before:
Tricks and tricks for a rule-compliant privacy
Most statutes of allotment garden associations do not allow for high screens, hedges, or hedgerow arrangements of shrubs. Nevertheless, there are certainly ways to discreetly get more privacy. Often the allotments in the facilities are anyway only visited on certain days of the week or at the weekend. Should then, for example, in the spring or summer, the curious neighbor be visually discouraged by their own sun lounger, some potted plants can be placed quickly temporarily in position. Laterally extendable awnings are a modern and quite practical way to visually shield the grill and seating area for the duration of use under the argument of "protection against wind gusts". Such time-limited types of "foreclosure" usually do not even strike the well-read paragraph riders of a allotment garden association.
With one-year plants and thoughtful garden planning for some privacy
Since allotments are to be used according to the relevant legal regulations on at least one third of their area for the cultivation of fruit and vegetables, the local association responsible persons only rarely have something against fouling of this kind. As a seasonal substitute for a permanent, living fence, it is therefore often possible to easily use appropriate climbing plants, such as climbing beans, on a suitable climbing aid. Cleverly placed raised beds fulfill their purpose without demonstratively provoking a sense of conscious isolation.
Tips
With thoughtful planning, the visual axes can also be designed in the allotment garden so that between the greenhouse, espalier fruit and raised beds for vegetable gardening, a somewhat sheltered corner remains for a comfortable seat in the sun.
