Hello,

I am hoping someone can help me with landscape ideas for my backyard. Privacy is my main concern. I would like trees to block out the neighbour directly behind me. Preferably evergreens so that the privacy will continue throughout the winter months. We can see each other from our backyards and rarely go back there because of this.

Backyard faces West

Zone 6A

Canada, ONT - gta

The tree on the left is a large pear tree that is approx. 20f away from the back fence

I'd like something to add depth to that flat wall ...

I've considered just planting a privacy hedge similar to this....

I love evergreens. The depth, different textures and the colour contrasts that they can create.

The back left corner of my yard is a very boring area (fence is now finished)

I'd like this corner to tie into the privacy solution. Something similar to the above picture to fill this corner would be perfect... but is my corner too shady?

I would really appreciate some advice or pictures so that I can visualize a privacy solution.

Thank you !
