Any ideas for narrow evergreen screen in front of this fence that attempts to hide my neighbor's kitchen window?

Mary on Oct 17, 2014Looks like you need something with some height to cover up that neighbor's window. We are in Iowa and zone 5 or 6. We put American (High Bush) cranberries along our back fence to cover up the neighbors garbage cans. They are just beautiful in the fall and summer with beautiful shades of wine, red and orange leaves in the fall as well as huge clusters of bright red berries that hang on far into winter. Also, spring and early summer is the time for huge clusters of white flowers on emerald green leaves. It is not, however, evergreen even though it is a very dense plant and may be just the thing to cover up that little bit of window. Maybe a Mountain Laurel border? It has the potential to reach 15' and is a very pretty plant and evergreen.Helpful Reply
