I have a south facing fence, about 60 ft long and 4 ft high. I really like
the vibrant colour of ceanothus and I'm wondering if it would make a
suitable hedge to run along in front of the fence.

tends to be to short lived to make a good hedge, and apart from C. arborea
does not like being cut back.
