Hello all,

We are renovating the rear of our garden (might end up putting in a
swimming pool!) and I need to plant some trees to provide some privacy.
Ideally something fast growing, but which doesn't go rocketing
skywards like leylandii. We already have masses of laurel, so
something different would be nice.

We have a clay soil, which gets boggy wet in winter, but dry and hard
as stone in the summer.

Any suggestions?

Simon.

Hi

How about some type of eucalyptus - there are loads of them, some
suitable for hedging and can tolerate pretty extreme conditions.
