The best thing is not to try to hide the walls but to create shapes that disguise them, even though the walls mostly can still be seen. This is done by planting some shrubs, a few trees and climbers to 'break up' the line of the walls.
A selection of shrubs and climbers is available at: http://www.garden.ie/plantdirectory.aspx
