I will be building a house in MA and I need landscaping advice.
My land is very close to a highway - so I am planning to plant mature
evergreens to block the noise. I would like them to be 6 ft tall and

What would you recommend and how much approximately should I budget for
80 ft frontage?


Depends if you want instant gratification then you must pay for it.
Yet small plants turn into large ones.

I'd consider a berm with rhododendrons.

Thanks

PS OK to make many mistakes so look about your neighbor plantings.
