Default Shade Privacy Tree Suggestions?

"saabdued" wrote in message

Hello, and thanks in advance for your assistance. I am in zone 7, on Long
Island, New York. I am looking for some privacy trees that would
preferably grow tall and full, yet not too wide, as their location is not
a very wide space (between a fence and a path). They would be in partial
to almost full shade, which I know would rule out many evergreens such as
arborvitae. While I prefer an evergreen suggestion, it could also be a
non-evergreen, as the privacy I seek is mostly for the summer months.
Thanks very much for your time and advice.


I can't help with plant suggestions, but whatever ideas you gather, you
might want to visit this place and see if you can meet the plants "in
person" before buying:
