I have a neighbour whose shed is a bit of an eyesore, and. I'd like to put up a screen as it's visible from the kitchen window.
At the moment there are a number of cypress trees along the fenceline, which do a reasonable job of hiding the bulk of the shed, but they are getting thin at the bottom. I'd like to fill in the gaps with something. Not really wanting to chop down the conifers, so whatever I plant has to be happy enough living under them. The soil is good- until i fenced it off this was a favourite corner for sheep to shelter in, so it's had plenty of fertilisation over the years!
Thinking of hawthorn, beech, or simply additional cypress... any other suggestions?
