When creating an evergreen privacy hedge, choosing the right bushes is essential for fast growth and dense coverage. Here are some of the best options:
Leyland Cypress (× Cuprocyparis leylandii): This fast-growing conifer can reach heights of up to 60 feet and widths of 12 feet. Its dense, feathery foliage creates an impenetrable barrier.
Green Giant Arborvitae (Thuja plicata 'Green Giant'): Another fast-growing conifer, the Green Giant can reach heights of up to 50 feet and widths of 15 feet. Its emerald-green foliage adds a touch of elegance to any landscape.
Emerald Green Thuja (Thuja occidentalis 'Emerald Green'): A smaller option, the Emerald Green Thuja grows to heights of up to 15 feet and widths of 4 feet. Its compact habit and vibrant green foliage make it a great choice for smaller spaces.
Boxwood (Buxus sempervirens): A classic evergreen shrub, Boxwood is slow-growing but can be easily pruned to maintain a dense hedge. Its glossy, dark green leaves add a touch of sophistication to any landscape.
Japanese Holly (Ilex crenata 'Convexa'): This dense, evergreen shrub grows to heights of up to 6 feet and widths of 4 feet. Its small, glossy leaves and compact habit make it a good choice for formal hedges.
