The Best Hedge Plants For Privacy

May 19th, 2011 posted by admin

One day as I was struggling with the plastic packaging my meat came in, I noticed that my nosey neighbor was peering into my yard. Now I love my privacy and decided to get some hedging. I went down to my local florist and she made some suggestions to me. So for anyone of you who are looking for some hedge plants here are some ideas.

The best way to get your most wanted privacy is by using privacy hedges. Use them in plenty and they will stop all those peeping Toms. These hedge plants have thorny branches so you can be quite sure of your privacy.

Using such hedge plants will give a clean look to your garden and is a nice change instead of boring fences. What more is that such hedge plants are readily available so you don’t have to wait for them to grow. Choose a hedge which is evergreen, tall and grows quickly. These tall plants will not only give you privacy but also cut down the external noise level. Some of the best evergreen plants that you can use as privacy hedges are Blue Spruce, Thuja Green Giant, Yew, Leyland Cypress, Blue Sapphire Cypress, Spartan Juniper etc.

Shrubs like Willow Hybrid, Red Twig Dogwood, American Cranberry, Chinese Privet, are available quite cheap, and are ideal for use as privacy hedges. You can also opt for vines and as they flower, they will make your garden beautiful. Bougainvillea, Honeysuckle Vine, Wisteria Creeper Vine can all be used as privacy hedges.

Nowadays, tall grasses are also used for this purpose. Zebra grass and Silver Feather Maiden Hair grass are used extensively as well.
