What is the most hardy and fastest growing evergreen shrub? I live in the
U.S. midwest. Basically want to use a shrub to use as a natural fence and
want it to grow as fast as possible. Thanks!

Euonymus is a pretty good choice too. Manhattan is a good upright type with
dark green foliage, also available with a variegated leaf.

Good idea, be sure to spray it with dormant oil in the winter. It
gets scale real bad if you don't.
