Very good selection! You chose varieties that I would. And if you want to add security to your screening, add hawthorn, barberry, and/or old rugosa (antique rose). Combine them with one of the thicker hedge and no one will dare enter!
I love Yew❣️💝 Lol 😂. Berries are poisonous though. I dislike euonymus for its invasive habit. It would have been nice if more details were shared, like growing zones.
Croton plants, with their colorful, variegated foliage, can be used as a border or fence line in warmer climates (USDA Hardiness Zones 9b-11), where they can be grown outdoors year-round. However, there are a few things to consider: - Croton plants are not particularly tall. Most species will grow to about 3 to 6 feet in height, so if you're looking for a privacy screen, they may not be the best choice. - Croton plants are not "bushy," so they won't form a dense barrier like some other plants used for hedging. - Croton plants prefer a well-draining soil and do not tolerate waterlogging. Make sure the area where you want to plant them has good drainage. - Crotons require a good amount of sunlight to maintain their vibrant leaf colors. If planted in an area with too much shade, the foliage may revert to green. - If you're in a cooler climate, crotons would need to be potted and brought indoors during the colder months as they are sensitive to cold temperatures. So, while crotons can be used for a border, they may not provide the density or height that typically comes to mind when one thinks of a "fence" of plants. Other shrubs or taller plants might be better suited for that purpose, depending on your specific needs and climate.
Absolutely, that's a great point! Deer can be quite a challenge in many gardens, and it's essential to choose plants they're less inclined to munch on. From the list we presented, some plants might be deer-resistant depending on your region and the local deer tastes. In the future, I'll make sure to provide that information or even consider creating a dedicated video on deer-resistant plants for privacy. Thank you for your valuable feedback! 👍🌿🦌✨

What are the best hedges for Florida climates?
Well done video.
Privet is a weed. It's incredibly invasive, seeding itself all over. As an ex professional gardener I beg of you don't plant Privet!
Thanks for the advice. I checked Google before seeing your comment and you are correct. It spreads the roots and grows new trees
@@ricedrown Not the worst I've seen. There are different varieties but I would choose something else, myself.

Nice choices
Thanks for the great privacy/screening plant ideas. The only problem is, other than the bamboo, I absolutely want to plant them all.
Great video
Go for it!
Would bamboo make best fencing plants
Can I use croton flowers for fencing

Hi
Picpay
Sounds like a computer generated voice, it's awful and the info is minimal.
Thank you for the advice. Next, I will make even better videos. ❤️
Growing Zones???
@@ophira2113 you’ll have to look it up yourself.
Some good privacy options that take a pruning and still look beautiful: photinia, arbutus, pittosporum, oleander.
Would be important to know which are deer resistant.
