I'm trying to screen my neighbor's yard. It is a west exposure. I'm doing a mixed hedge, as it's about 60 feet and gets varying amounts of sun. The sunny area has been easy - used Karl Forester grass, Fine Line Buckthorn and Ninebarks. The shady length gets a little morning sun, then shade the rest of the day. The soil is well drained amended clay. I'm considering Limelights (will wind be a factor?), & fothergilla, but am open to suggestions.
