I recently moved into a new house which has a great garden, but i have no privacy at all. I was think about some hedging for it, but dont know what the best would be. There is a 6 foot fence already in place which doesn't help, so i would need something that would grow higher than this. Can you please advise me on what would be best to plant.
Thanks for your Help

Hiya Fiona,

I just know this is going to be deleted but here goes. My favorite plant site is [link] If you go to their website on the first page there will be a list at the top click on Plant Search. On the next page pull it down until you can see the Hedge photo and labeling and click on it. You then can either click on one of their recomended choices or click on the drop down list as to how fast you want this hedge to grow. Remember you don't have to buy the hedge from this site but it will give you an idea of what you want when you go to the garden center.
