We want some screening plants at the back of our garden.
A local tree place recommended laurel plants and a neighbour has bamboo in a trough but are there any native alternatives that we should consider?
Something that will grow up and out quickly, and high enough to block the windows behind as far as possible? The developers who built the houses behind have put in silver birches and something else, possibly maple, but they aren't likely to do much in terms of privacy.
