[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cars and sidewalk pedestrians. We have a hedge but it’s not growing. I don’t think it gets enough sunlight because they just don’t get taller.[/quote]

When did you put them in, and what trees did you use? How tall are they now? You could replace it with closely planted, 6ft evergreens that can be sheared into a hedge - it would be expensive to buy half grown trees but you could do it.

Are you allowed to put in a fence? That would help.[/quote]

I wanted to do that. We planted some arbovitae last year and they haven't grown at all in a year. Not at all (I'm measuring). We spaced them three feet apart. How long will it take for them to actually grow? Maybe I should post that question to the lawn and garden board. I'd like to enjoy the privacy now, not 10 years from now. [/quote]

I’m on a double yellow and have planted abovitae and not a chance they would survive at 3ft apart. Mine are a good 10ft apart and grow at least 18in a year. Too close and they will quickly choke each other out. I have a row of about 15 fully lining the backyard with a solid green wall. [/quote]

There’s no chance of this happening anytime soon. Like I said, they haven’t grown an inch, and they definitely get sun where they are (unlike the hedge in front). [/quote]
