I know it sounds a bit morbid, but I want a black fence. I had one in
my previous house, and the plants looked fantastic against it.

I have about 20 metres to 'paint', and so far all I can find is Garden
Shades in 2.5 litre pots, at about £15.

Anyone know of a more cost-effective alternative?


Simple black emulsion paint, then a coat of a good quality varnish to seal
it in.
