Hi,

My neighbour insists on switching on his "retina burner" (500W HAaogen
Light) every night which lights up my whole garden and blinds me should
I look out my kitchen window after about 9 pm . I would like to plant a
bushy tree about 8-9 feet high to partially block this out. Can you
suggest something tallish with dense foliage which might suit this
purpose.

Ta

PS He has previously refused to leave the light off so asking politely
is not an option

Much though i loathe Leylandi it would seem that in this instance its
definitely your best bet
I suggest you gently tell him that if he refuses to be reasonable then you
will plant Leylandi and you will not reduce their height ...........you
might need to put it in writing and even copy it to your councils
Environmental Health Officer if as I suspect they tell you theres nothing
they can do

You should be able to get some pretty tall container grown Leylandii if you
check nurseries etc
