  • Install trellises with quick growing vines, climbing roses or jasmine. In spite of no fences, I would not want to sit in a parking lot either. 🚖🚗🚘

    privit is the best bush but you will have to wait a few years for it to grow higher than the fence.

    Good fences make good neighbors. Get a dog... or a young child or grandchild. Put up a fence and if the neighbors comment, tell them you needed to do it to protect the child or dog from wandering off. You could also just borrow a dog for a week or so after the fence was in place, then return it to your friend or relative and tell the neighbors the dog just didn't work out and you had to return it to it's previous owner...

    We were surrounded by houses that created a privacy problem along with unsightly yards. I simply informed my neighborsthat we were installing a privacy fence and re-assured them that our intent was not to exclude them from our yard or insult them. They and their children were welcome to visit. With the emphasis that would gain privacy too. It's worked out great.
