Hiding compost bin

by Nicky
My compost bin is in the middle of the garden by next doors fence and the view of it is ruining the look of the garden, what grow I use to hide it? It is about at least 4 feet tall, large and black and very ugly!

    I recently saw something that makes composting both easier and interesting... look up "keyhole garden" - they build them in South Africa where the soil is poor - but these work wonderfully to grow veggies! I love the idea and plan to implement it too. I only recently found it - so I don't have anything built yet.

    Thank you so much! I have looked up the link. I have been lucky enough to visit South Africa from the UK. I love that place. I will try to photo this bin tomorrow. I think it has to come out it has been there 5 years and has never produced any compost from the bottom flap although I don't think I should have put twigs in it. This would be really great for me because I have back trouble and find bending quite hard. Thanks again!
