| I'm a newbie in gardening and so far I only made terrible mistakes. I moved a row of evergreen(sorry don't know the species)as privacy hedge between my driveway and backyard (we have a corner house so it's the whole side behind my house). They all died. I finally removed those and suddenly realized our backyard is wide open to the street! This time I have to make it right so I ask all you professionals for Help. Here is in zone 6 and partial shade. (The hedge will facing east and there is a row of trees at south end perpendicular to it) We've already have many azalea at front yard and side of house. Is there anything else I can plant? Need 4-6 feet in height, evergreen and flowering ones. |

| Cherry Laurel is an attractive, evergreen, fairly fast growing plant that makes a good hedge. They grow quite tall but they can easily be pruned. I keep mine at about 4'. Another evergreen I've had good luck with is Manhattan Euonymous. It has similar growth habits and is a very handsome shrub that makes an excellent hedge. Also easy to propagate. |
