Cindi,
We used to have a row of mature pines on each side of our house (6 on one side,4 on the other) that acted as a privacy screen. In the past few years we have lost 4 of them to a disease of some sort. And it seems every year another one dies out.
Although we love our neighbors, we each enjoy the screening provided by these trees. I would like to plant something else that would provide screening. Looking for fast growing, tall (10ft.+)and inexpensive. What do you have in your bag of tricks that may work for us?
Thanks, ScottB
