When your privacy fence doesn't offer much privacy - try these fast easy growing shrubs!

Our bare root shrub (and tree) varieties are a cost efficient way to plant hedges to define property lines and for privacy from a busy street or nosy neighbors. Well...sometimes neighbors aren't so nosy, but we just want some outdoor private space. Shrubs are a gentle way to introduce a needed barrier.

Here are 7 shrubs for quick growing hedges:

• California Privet - semi-evergreen, dense growth, excellent for shaping into box form
• Rosa Rugosa - summer flowers, has thorns
• Ibolium Privet - hardier for zone 4, great fall foliage
• Lucy Rose of Sharon - upright shape with large red summer flowers (also Ardens, Blushing Bride & Diana)
• Golden Forsythia - free form style easily shaped if prefer, yellow spring blooms
• Burning Bush - strong dense growth, brilliant fall foliage
• Red Weigela - upright growth, spring - spring to summer red flowers
