Backyard Privacy - need some creative help

Comments (13)We recently found Euonymus "Manhattan" that are 4 ft wide by 5 feet high, planted on a trellis. They grow to 8 x 8. We got eight to cover our ugly "good neighbor" back and side fences. I thought of these when I saw them as a good solution instead of box or hollies as they would take a long time to get full and lush. Now that they are in place along the fence line, they look really good. They are not very deep, like other hedge plants would be. For goodness sake don't plant juniper for a hedge, too many houses have that here, and everybody that has it when they got their houses ends up hating it and ripping it out! What about a hedge of thornless or nearly thornless roses?? R. Banksaie normalis, banksaie banksaie or banksaie lutea are great for this and they will cover 20-30 feet in only a few short years.

Comments (9)Kelvin, I would plant some plumerias. They would do fine in your climate, I'm pretty sure. Look up online plumeria, and see what they look like, you can even do a raised planter for each one. They also grow fast, and are evergreen, so something to think about. Since your space is so limited, have you considered an evergreen vine? You could train it to grow wherever you want it to, and also still have room for additional raised beds if you want. Or mabey both? Plumerias do very well in pots, as long as the soil is well draining. And vines, well, just visit any local nursery for a suggestion, they can help you out, and they usually grow pretty fast also. Nice space, you can make it look tropical if you want....See Moreideas for some privacy in a loft bedroom?
Comments (12)I like artistsharovna's second photo as a solution for this, but that still might be a bit much to execute. Here's an idea (I don't think I can find a photo of it) Get some hanging racks on wheels like they have in clothing stores and attach fabric hangings like beautiful old horse blankets, quilts or an oriental rug. You can push them together, overlap them or push them out of the way when you need to....See Morefloraluk2
