[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]arborvatae[/quote] or holly trees: http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/greenspring/infosheets/evertree.pdf A long, straight row of any one type of tree is boring. Also, if one gets diseased, and needs to be removed, it will look odd. Consider planting a mix of native evergreens in a more naturalistic pattern that will still provide a screen. (The leland cypress is not native, ugly and so overdone by the masses of unimaginative people!) Double check your property lines b/f you plant and distance from the street. Legally I think it has to be at least 6 feet in. Also be mindful that you're not creating a safety issue for sight-lines for cars and pedestrians as well for your house. (Houses where entrances are hidden from the street are more at risk for break ins.)[/quote]
