What's Wattle Fencing?

I've been busily weaving wattle fences around plants in the garden using the last of the winter prunings (mainly from 2 very straggly snowball trees). I hope that these low fences will protect plants from wandering nieces, nephews and dog feet!

These 2 little fences are protecting 2 tiny caper bushes that are just beginning to re-sprout after feigning death.
If you're interested in starting your own weaving project this is a great segment from Gardening Australia that should help you on your way.
