Ich möchte einen Kletterer anbauen, um die Wand dieses hässlichen Nachbarn zu verbergen, kann aber nicht hineinbohren. Wie kann ich das machen? Könnte ich Holz daran kleben und dann Augenhaken befestigen?

You could yes. No more nails or some exterior equivalent should do it. Or glue trellis to the wall ?

Is that concrete floor right up against it? Have you considered pots of bamboo instead? It’s fast growing, will fan out and is mostly evergreen – would hide that in no time 👍🏻

Something self-clinging perhaps? Paddy’s Pride or hydrangea petiolaris? It won’ do the wall much good but honestly it serves it right.

Climbing hydrangeas don’t cling too hard in my experience. Nothing compared to varigated ivy from the supermarket, for example. That stuff exudes epoxy resin.

Put up 2 fence panels of your own and you can attach anything you please to it.

“Can’t drill into it” -Well, you can of course.
What is the reason for not wanting to? I’ll presume you’re concerned that it’s not your wall, but if you’re planning on growing something up it and you’re fine with that, putting some small holes a few cm into it is not going to ruin it.
If they’re disagreeable people, i’d just wait for them to go out, be prepared and ready with everything, pop a couple holes, throw in some plugs and screw in some eyelets and you’re done. It’s literally a 2 minute job.

I’d frame up a simple wood wall, cover it with lattice, and grow a grape.

Climbers would work to hide the wall but I don’t think it’ll make your neighbour less ugly I’m afraid.

How ugly is this neighbour?

Pyrus communis or something espaliered will preserve the wall. Plant about 18” from the wall and prune to a fan shape.

Can you drill on either side and then string wire across the width of it?

Cable clips are simple easy and barely visible…

You can buy (or make) deep sturdy wooden planters with trellis attached.
I would plant a couple of different climbers, definitely something fast growing like clematis Montana.

Large planter tubs with posts in with detachable trellis attached to the posts.
Then you can always move the “arrangement” if needed, or you move out.

You can paint it too!

ivy will take over most of that within 6 or 8 years…. though then you’ve got ivy:\
Upside you will attract birds.

Why cannot you drill into it? I did it with my neighbor wall, exactly the same. At the end of the day the wall is in a shared space of the property, so you have a right to act on your side I believe.

You could put some eyelets in your fence post and then add some to your house 10/20mm away from their wall? That way nothing touches their wall (apart from the climber when it’s established) and you have shown willing to leave a bit of an air gap so you can’t be blamed for any damage to their render?

Climbing hydrangea.
It looks like an L shape. Is the part that sticks out yours? If so, you could fabricate a trellis that attaches to the wooden beam on the fence to a wooden beam on your property. That way you wouldn’t touch your neighbours.

Anything you adhere to the wall could cause the render to seperate from the blocks/bricks, eventually. Or at the least be blamed for it if it happens. I think fence posts, sunk in your garden, and panels on your side would be best.

Build something similar to a raised bed below to act as an anchor and you can attach a trellis to it. Worst case scenario you’ll need a few corner supports but not the end of the world

Is it a wall owned by an ugly neighbour or an ugly wall owned by a neighbour?

Cheap and cheerful. Paint and place potted banbpo in front of it. Climbers may damage the already moody render and blow the lot.

Create a raised bed with trellis fixed to the back, grow a fast rambling rose or clematis.
clockwork_cookie on
Make or buy a Long wooden planter, and fix four upright posts to the back of it. Fix trellis to the posts.
