My neighbor recently cut down a bunch of tall trees that did a pretty
good job of hiding his mess from my mess. To remedy this situation
quickly, I want to do this:

1/ Sink 20' rebar into concrete-filled buckets
2/ String bird netting or deer netting between these pieces of rebar,
and
3/ Grow some fast-growing climbing plants (flowering, edible or
whatever) to grow up the netting and thus having a very high green
wall.

This would probably need to be kept from tipping over somehow from
wind, but this seems to be a minor point.

Can anyone find any faults with this project and can anyone suggest
plants for this project?


The main fault I see is that it may be very temporary. Any food crop will
complete its lifecycle and die, leaving you with the original problem.
Depending on where you live, it might not meet zoning regulations. I
wouldn't think that a bucket of concrete would hold a twenty food piece of
rebar. When you add wind load to the equation, you will have some
considerable torque to deal with. If the thing falls and injures someone or
causes damage to your neighbor's property, you could be facing some big
liability. If the arrangement is ridiculously unstable, you could be facing
criminal negligence should someone get injured or killed.
