It is natural to want privacy at your home. Fences can offer a barrier between homes and security, but they do not have the height or low-maintenance benefits of a tree screen. Many homeowners want to relax in their backyard or play with their children out of view of their neighbors. Privacy trees can offer a tall, green wall that will last for decades, a cost-effective and natural solution. Most privacy trees require little to no maintenance, making them a perfect addition to your landscaping needs.

Privacy trees offer a natural solution to block the view of neighbors or street traffic into your yard. Many of the trees used to create screening for outdoor spaces grow quickly, with wide, low bases for full coverage. Cypress, cedar and other thick trees are popular options, most of which are faster growing. Some types of evergreens and cypress can grow a few feet every year, creating a thick, tall barrier in just a few years. There are also smaller varieties that will not grow tall, but still offer a thick, full screen for privacy.

When choosing privacy trees, it’s important to consider the size and growth rate of the trees, as well as their mature height and spread. You’ll want to choose trees that will reach a sufficient height and width to provide the desired level of privacy, without overcrowding the space or becoming overgrown. Deciduous trees, which lose their leaves in the fall, may provide better privacy during the warmer months, while evergreen trees can provide year-round privacy.

It’s also important to consider the location and orientation of your privacy trees. Planting tall, narrow trees along a property line can provide maximum privacy with minimal impact on the rest of your yard. Alternatively, you may choose to plant a row of trees along the back of your property to create a natural barrier.

Once you’ve chosen the right trees for your space, proper planting is crucial to their success. Properly preparing the soil, choosing the right location, and providing adequate watering and care during the establishment period will help your privacy trees thrive.

Overall, privacy tree planting is a beautiful and effective way to increase privacy and enhance the beauty of your property. With careful planning and expert assistance, you can create a natural screen that provides the perfect balance of privacy and beauty.
