I have very small back yard so I'm in big-time need of a privacy hedge. I'm
also interested in something that grows fast because I don't plan on being
here for more than another three years or so. I've seen some yards with
bamboo, which seems to provide for a nice, thick privacy screen. I've also
just started looking into Austree Hybrids, which can grow six to seven feet
in one season - http://austree.com/rma/trees/index.html.

Does anyone here have experience with either of these and care to comment or
advise?
