What shrubs grow fast and tall?
What are the easiest shrubs to grow?
What is the fastest growing shrub for privacy?
My neighbors just put a trampoline right next to our shared fence! Every time I step outside the kids are staring right into my backyard from atop the trampoline 💀 I have a couple trees overhead that cause the ground to be generally shady but maybe with occasional sun throughout the day. Please recommend some shrubbery that I could plant next to my fence, which would tolerate such lighting conditions and ideally grow to a minimum of 8 feet in height!
I’m looking to plant a couple shrubs to strategically hide the garbage that my neighbors have decided they must store along our shared fenceline (forgive my resentment; their yard is 1 acre and the other 3 sides of their yard are hidden from neighbors by privacy fences but they choose the one spot that has no privacy fence and abuts our land, to put their old machinery/trailers/bulk trash items. Our kitchen window points directly at their trash pile.)
My yard slants downward towards my house so I think I need a bush that will get about 8 feet tall in not too much time. It’s not a very sunny spot but it does get morning sun.
A large apartment complex has just been built RIGHT next to my house and backyard. Suddenly anything we do outdoors has spectators with front row seats. I was considering a tall and fast growing, clumping (not running) bamboo. Do you guys have any suggestions (bamboo or otherwise) for this purpose and also any leads for reliable businesses for ordering plants and getting what was advertised? I am in Seattle and would be grateful for any help. Thanks a lot!
