Trees for screen
The message m
from stoneysteve contains these words: Hi, My neighbour insists on switching on his "retina burner" (500W HAaogen Light) every night which lights up my whole garden and blinds me should I look out my kitchen window after about 9 pm . I would like to plant a bushy tree about 8-9 feet high to partially block this out. Can you suggest something tallish with dense foliage which might suit this purpose. Ta PS He has previously refused to leave the light off so asking politely is not an option Try asking your local council's advice; perhaps he's offending local bylaws. Or look carefully in your house deeds. In a new housing development, you might find there are useful restrictions on what degrees of nuisance neighbours may inflict on each other. You'd need an evergreen tree since the light will be on longest in winter; perhaps either a conifer or holly. Holly would take several years to reach a useful size for your needs; leylandii cypress could do it much faster. You could also ask him to fit a much smaller halogen bulb. Janet. |
