If your garden isn't too cold, how about a row of phormium tenax, or
escallonia.


Thanks. The Pormium wouldn't look right, Escallonia looks interesting.
How fast does it grow? I notice that "apple blossom" and "Langleyensis"
has AGM H4


Not all that fast, but some varieties will get to well over 6 feet if you
don't prune every couple of years or so.
