[quote=Anonymous]Skip laurel were the best screen choice ever, nothing else compared. I planted the biggest ones I could find, several feet apart, down whole narrow side of house, and now a solid green year round hedge taller then my house. Added to my other side as well. About 3-5 years later and total privacy. They grow in sun and even shade of bigger tree canopy. When I forget to trim them say after 3 years, I take the power hedge trimmer and cut off several feet of width back to just wood and branches, and by the end of next summer, it is all new green leaves. I don't think there is a more perfect choice. We own probably 40 of them! If anyone can name something that beats a laurel for all these factors, I'd love to know. Most of the other evergreens need too much sun, grow too slow, or get way too wide.[/quote]
