Default Which of the 3 would you go with for privacy fence?

actually you are zone 5. if you got the room for spread get the large spirea, bridal
wreath. here is picture of my "dwarf" ones

they like sun and grow fast with good watering, nice dirt. the big ones get to be
6-8 feet tall. Jung's has em

I am looking at the following 'rapid' growing plants/shrubs

Autumn Olive
Red Mulberry
Russian Olive

I live around Chicago - zone 4

I need to have something that grows very fast - as a privacy fence. All
these will be 2 foot high when I plant them.

Thank you in advance!
