The neighbours, to the north, are building a garage in the fence line.
It has been suggested I grow a creeper on the wall. What to grow? What will grow in the shade?
Don't limit your suggestions to creepers but limit them to what grows in the southern latitudes The suggestion of banana trees is not helpful.

If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

A 101 and the BAE trailer are parked there already. And plans to mount a gate are being drawn.

Hmmm......
A bit outside of the box.
Nah. I'd rather have a brick wall than fake plants.

yea, no worries... was just a thought. I actually like the shed idea too!

SubscriberMoss & lichens grow well on my shaded wall. Just add some water.

Stag Horns do well in the shade. Bracken underneath would look good too.
Cheers, Billy.
Keeping it simple is complicated.

Do not plant a creeper / vine - it will curse you until you rip it out. It will grow into every crevice / crack, into the eves and be a pain in the backside from all the pruning you will have to keep up with.
I have been told if you want moss / lichen to grow spray the wall with milk first.
Or cover it with some ornamental iron work.
